While I realize that some people are unjustly accused of abuse, this corner of the forum is not about that. We are adult children of alcoholics and are relating our life experiences.

Just last weekend my brother asked me why I never told him our dad was beating me and inappropriately touching me, till I was 18. He said he would have done anything to make it stop. I didn't have an answer for him or myself other than I thought everyone knew and was as afraid of him as I was.

Children and young people are not always able to tell tell tell. That is why we tell now.
