Should I tell my whole family about this sexual abuse?

Such things should never be kept secret. It’s not good for you. If no one ever kept it secret, I dont think that 1 in 8 children would be abused- do you?

U don’t have to if u don’t want to. As long as u have told somebody responsible that can help and as I can c u have told alot, it’s not really necessary for u to disclose such personal info unless u want to. It may be good they mite b able 2 offer u sum more closure

yes..i went thru the samething it started at age 7 and stopped at age 13…when i finally told somone its hard but worht it…good luck<3

Yes. What are you afraid of? That the guy who did it will come after you or something? The police can protect you from that. And other than that, I don’t see what you would be afraid of. I mean, your family will help you get through it. Tell them.

ahh it is a private matter of yours. but if he could do this to someone else or a diff fam member it needs to stop. also he needs to stop doing it to you. it’s wrong. who i would tell would depend on who the person is that did it. did your dad/sisters/or aunt do ne thing to stop this? hope so! i’m not trying to be mean, i dunno if ur close to ur mom or if shes around,but if ur close to her,you should always tell ur mom about this kinda stuff.

IF YOU WANT TO KEEP IT PERSONAL THEN YOU DON’T HAVE TO TELL ANYONE ELSE, BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU’VE ALREADY TOLD PEOPLE THAT WILL BE SUPPORTING TO YOU. UNLESS, THE PERSON THAT DID THIS IS STILL AROUND THE FAMILY AND COULD HURT SOMEONE ELSE, THEN YOU DON’T HAVE TO TELL ANYONE ELSE IF YOU DON’T WANT TOO. IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO TELL SOMEONE(LIKE YOUR FATHER) WHO COULD HELP TAKE SOME LEAGLE ACTION AGAINST THIS PERSON, BUT DON’T FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO TELL YOUR WHOLE FAMILY IF YOU DON’T WANT TO.

If the possibility that he’s still out there doing this to others doesn’t concern you, don’t tell - if it does and you want to see justice done, tell - your choice…I wish you the best !!
