I understand why you've made the decision...so the only reason I can see for you to decide otherwise would be for the two little ones who cannot do it for themselves. It is quite likely your brother is abusing them. You said yourself that you don't fully trust him with his daughters. That's what you'll have to live with if you ever learn they too were victims by his hands.

difficult....Not easy for you. but you'll have to be honest with yourself.
by: Anonymous

Heal as fully as you can from what your brother did to you and then with a clearer mind you will know what the best way forward is for you. Darlene has offered you loving words of support from the huge heart she has for all her visitors. each one individually because of her stewardship of her site she respects in the telling of their personal story. I am certain she see many similiarities but she comments personally to each one individaully. It can't be easy but then she knew her site would be a safe haven for you and me. LOVE yourself first then put a value on your insticts about what your brother may or may nor being doing to his children. I doubt very much if he has changed so please keep an open mind. He abused you, did he get help? has anything changed.? do the right thing for those two children if and whaen you hear he has done any thing unsavoury to either one. Called abuse. Heed Darlene's words. she knows what is best for you right now in the decision you have taken. Always believe in yourself.

Words or warning, thanks
by: Hayley

Thanks to both of you. Apparently when my brother was sent to jail and later put on probabtion he was made to attend counselling sessions. Hopefully that will have brought home to him that kids have a value as people not play things for sick minded adults. If I find he has touched my beautiful nieces the slightest bit innappropriately I can't see him surviving long enough to stand trial if I get hold of him. There's a better chance of me being in the dock for killing him. I know it's drastic but I'd take that risk to get justice for those girls if he hurts them. He seems to have grown up now and I hope he had a really hard time from the rest of the lads when he was in jail. (Thank you if you did punish him in your own way!) In my work as an auxiliary nurse I am yet to come face to face with a paedo. I suppose I would just have to get on with it. I can handle the drug dealers and kids that break asbos, but paedos are a different story all together.
