Thank you for sharing it does help others. It's really hard to talk about. I know for a fact abusers all threaten children and use fear to force them to comply and also keep them quiet. They also blame the victims. Nothing you say sounds odd but actually follows the pattern of abuse. I have heard different theories why abuse seems to follow the victims. I heard that psychological theories of self fulfilling professy. I have heard that the network keeps tabs on the victims and know who to target. I have even heard a spiritual explanation, that demons possessing the abusers know who to target and return to their victims. I am probably butchering that theory, I apologize if I am reporting it wrong. What is a fact is that it is a phenomenon that once abused a child is repeatedly abused throughout their life. Step one in healing is acknowledging it. You can't fix it if you don't know what is broken so good for you for acknowledging it. You have a courage I wish I had. It's really hard to face this. Thanks for sharing.
