I'm 11 and my babysitter is touching me wrong.He's 16 and he babysits me everyday after school. When I finish homework and watch tv he makes me sit on his lap and he puts his hands up my shirt.I say stop,but he says its okay and to just come down.Sometimes he even puts his hands down my pants.I know what he is doing is wrong and I want to tell my parents,but I'm to scared what do I do?

Understand this first and foremost: The guy is a GRADE A creep with a really disgusting problem. None of this is your fault in any way, shape or form either. Your parents won't be upset with you at all. And you MUST TELL.

They need to know the truth so they can help you and he gets punished. Also they need to know so that you never have to see him or go through this crap again. He may have victimized other girls and not just you. By telling the truth to your parents it will help others babysat by him and end victimization for them too.

You can't keep this secret. No matter what you need to yell it from the rooftops and tell every last adult you know including teachers privately about this. They'll know how to get the police involved and you the counseling you will need to move on. You're the victim he isn't. Everyone will be on your side.

If telling your parents or others in conversation is hard write it all out in a letter and give it to an adult you trust and let them do the rest. It has to come out one way or the other. Nobody said this would be easy but you have to be brave and put a stop to this by speaking out. Tough to do at any age let alone 11 but you have to get this out to adults who will do nothing but help.
