I recently was told that my late father-in-law was a serial child abuser who molested his daughter and at least two of his grandchildren.
My husband loved and deeply respected his parents. Should I tell my husband this information? Should I ask my grown son if he was also molested as his cousins were? I don’t want to “rock the boat,” but I want to do what is best for my son, and I’m not used to keeping things from my husband.
Prior to his passing, his oldest child was saying what a horrible father he was. Now my brother is gone, and she’s mad she “didn’t get to grieve” and posting nasty things about me on social media. I won’t stoop to her level and respond. Gene quit talking to all of them four months before his death. Was I wrong for not telling them?No, you were not wrong. You honored your brother’s wishes.
Because I survived and left my own abuser, I take my safety seriously. Another friend says I should be there for her. I did tell her police officer granddaughter about the abuse. Should I stay or should I go?Do not allow anyone to guilt you into putting yourself into a dangerous situation. Assure your friend that once this risky romance ends, if she’s still in one piece, you will be there for her.
