Is it time to come out of the dark?

[Fallen Angels]

I live with my father. I have no other family. I have an older brother who lives on his own. For years, my father molested me. He made me do sexual things, and even got me drunk when I was 16. The night he got me drunk, he realized that what he was doing was wrong. He stopped. But, the damage was done. I have nightmares, and cry myself to sleep every night. I feel like if I speak up now, I would have no right. The abuse has stopped, and I'm almost 18 so I can move out soon. I was debating whether or not I should tell someone.

I'm convinced he won't sexually abuse me again. I don't think he would do that to any other child either. Its been about 9 months since he stopped, and now he acts like it never happened.

Tonight, my brothers fiance told me she think she's pregnant. She was abused by her father, and has no idea about mine. She trusts my father like family. So does my brother. If she's pregnant... I know they will have my father baby sit. He wants grandchildren, and would volunteer to baby sit all the time. But, when I grow up, and have kids of my own... I'm not letting him baby sit.

Is it time, to come out of the dark and tell my brother and his fiance about my father? Do they deserve to know? Would you want to know? Even if she isn't pregnant, they want kids. It's going to happen sooner or later. Even though I'm convinced he won't hurt another child... should I talk anyway?

If you feel it's not worth the risk, don't chance it. It's not to late to speak up at all, if you feel it's the right thing to do and that you can do it then try because another child could be at risk here, good luck love :hug3:

Okay, so turns out she's not pregnant. She had all the signs, but her pregnancy test came back negative... So, I'm thinking about just waiting until I'm 18, so I can move out first. Then, when they have kids, I won't be living with him. Might make it easier.
