What your stepfather is doing to you is terrible.

Tell your mum. Don't let him abuse you anymore. Try and get her alone and talk to her in private or write her a letter like some of the other aunts suggested. Your mum should believe you. If you don't feel as though you can tell her tell your dad. Or a teacher at school.

They will believe you. There would be mo reason for you to make anything like that up.

Be strong. I know this will be hard for you. But he needs to be stopped.

Please let us know how it goes. Let us know you're ok. You can mail me if you like. I'm here if you need to talk.

Tell your mother. Get her alone and have a heart to heart with you. I dont believe any mother would believe a daughter would lie about this. Your mother will then make him move out and/or press charges.

If for whatever reason telling your mother fails (it shouldn't) go to someone at your school. They will help you for sure.

I hope this helps and as a girl who was molested when i was young it will take a long time to heal but doing so will make you a stronger better person. You can e-mail me if you have more questions.

listen pet i know this is a huge deal and at the moment its worse because ur the only person who knows but by telling someone you can stop this horrible man and share the load do it immediately and if you dont think you can tell it to someone write it down in a letter and let them read it it will be much easier for you
