karenR answered Wednesday May 25 2005, 7:39 am: I think you need to continue to talk with your counselor. She is there to be of help to you. Be honest with her and tell her everything that is bothering you. Don't just assume she is on your "parents side" because she questions you about it. She needs all the details she can get.
Don't treat her like the enemy. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

First of all I know its really hard what your going thought and they should totally belive u about that type of stuff. I know its really hard but killing yourself and cuttting is just another way of failing your have a whole life ahead of you cant waste it now. And in all it seems like no ones on your side be think how many people would miss you if you died.MY POINT IS DONT KILL YOURSELF!! and on the other hand if your dad touches you 1 more time just call the police or a help line if you want to talk more about it you can aim at pinknprettychick or email me at legallybrunette@bellsouth.net

Michele answered Tuesday May 24 2005, 3:08 pm: You have been violated by the two people in your life that you are supposed to be able to trust. That hurts! A lot! And it is made worse because no one will acknowlege that the act happened, or that you are owed an apology. Everyone is in denial. Your mom's refusal to acknowledge that you were violated by your dad, and her refusal to do anything about it, most likely hurts worse. And you also have to face him each day. Oh my God, it is not wonder that you have problems. The therapist also sounds like a jerk, and you know why she takes your parents side, because they pay the bill. It is not OK,none of it is OK, but you are a minor child, so what are you do to? Nothing is happening now though right? So here is what you CAN do. Start thinking about yourself. Start loving your self and being kind to yourself. Be the parent you always wanted to be to yourself. Get an education, stay in school, be succesful....hell, become famous, and guess who will want to see their little girl and be in her good graces and share in her success.........well your parents of course, and that is when you can tell them to go f*** off!
You will never get the satisfaction that you need from these two. You will never get the acknowledgement from your father that he is a pedophile. You will never get the apology that you so rightly deserve. But you can get revenge. Stop hurting yourself, that is no bother to them, they just point to your behavior (cutting/depression) and say your crazy. And outsiders see what you are doing to yourself and agree. BE PATIENT. Get better, get stronger, get smarter, get away, get rich, get famous, then get revenge. No you don't have to shoot them, or cut them or even have them arrested. Just be polite, and when they seem to want to be your parents the most....to be proud of the beautiful young lady that they helped to raise.....that is when you reject them....and yes it will all be worth it. It will hurt them worse than anything else you could do. You know why, because all three of you will KNOW the REAL REASON for your rejection. The police don't care, the lawyers don't care, the courts don't care. In situations like that, you never know what side they will be on. IT could all backfire on you. Like it has with the therapist. But your own rejection of them, when it will count the most, is when they want to be your proud parents, and you dump them.
You sound like a very smart girl. You know the truth, you know the deal. They are the loosers, not you. YOU DID NOTHING WRONG. You are the only one who is OK. they are rotten, but right now they are the adults and in control. So it seems to you that all is lost, there is no help. but some day YOU WILL BE AN ADULT. In fact there is no stopping it. Now you can grow into adult hood with emotional problems, drug and alcohol problems, and mixed up in lousy relationships, drop out of school, and all that. That is what a lot of girls in your situation have done because of their stupid parents and not being raised in a loving and supportive home. OR you can go into adulthood with a good education, and plans for your future, and when you are standing on your own two feet, you won't need anyone. and you wil be proud of yourself, as well as the friends you make along the way.
Also be careful about your relationship. Because you were violated, you may make the wrong choices in men, choose guys that are not good enough for you just so you won't be alone. Thinking there is something wrong with you and you deserve to be treated badly. WRONG.You deserve to be treated well, cherished like a princess. You will find someone some day who will treat you that way, but you must be patient, and you must avoid trouble. Just keep telling yourself that you are taking steps to ensure that you have a wonderful future. Don't loose site of it. and follow your goals. You will be glad that you did. Good luck to you I know that you can do it. I went through the same thing. I have so much power now, on one can hurt me. And I have people who love and cherish me. And I have two sons who were raised in a loving home. They are happy and well adjusted. They are teenagers. And they don't hate me. Isn't that wonderful. I must have done something right. But if I followed my parents example. They would not be OK. This is doable. Please try. WRite to me again if you like. I will continue to give you encouragement.
PS Tell your therapist that I think she's a lousy therapist.
Good luck to you dear.
