    I am being molested, what should I do?
    Me and my older sister are being molested. I am 11 and she is 15. My dad died 2 years ago and my mother is having an affair with this married guy. It is bad enough he is having sex with my mom but now he touches us and hits us. We are really good friends with his kids so we don't want to ruin the relationship. I thought if I do something about this everything would turn out bad. I really don't want to lose such good friends. I want to tell somebody at church but I have no time. I told my friend but its summer vacation and I never see anybody. I am just locked up in my house. I also don't want to lose the relationship with my mom. Every time he comes over I would gladly tell anybody what's happening but when I hang out with his kids I feel like I am just overreacting. Oh and this guy is really stupid. He thinks that the reason I am under weight is because I talk too much! Ha! Somebody please give me a reasonable answer!

    You need to tell your mom right away. If you can tell someone at school or church, they can help you report it. If your mom won't call the police, you can. Can you tell a relative or neighbor? Get help right away. I am worried for you and your sister. Let us know how you are doing after you report this. You may be helping his children, too.

    The thing is my mom doesn't care that he is abusing us. She thinks its like sacrificing something for God. Except he is the devil. I can't call the cops or my mom would know. I don't want to ruin my life. Everything is about fine the way it is. I am so stuck and confused. Oh and I have never met my neighbors and my relatives live across the country and the world

    Everything is not fine the way it is if you are being molested. If your mom finds out you called the police, then too bad. You are not safe in your own home if you are being molested! You can't get help unless someone else knows. If your mom won't help, then tell someone at church, or as I said before, call the police!

    Oh honey, PLEASE tell someone! You are NOT in trouble for this. This man is sick and needs to be punished. I'm sorry but if your mother does not care, maybe that's not the best place for you or your sister. Please call the police or tell someone at the church.

    You need to be safe, so tell someone. You should always be angry if someone is molesting you. That is not OK!

    If you are in the US I urge you to call this number 1-800-422-4453. That's the number for the National Child Abuse Hotline.

    This is NOT okay and it will NOT go away.

    I am very worried for you.

    If you don't care that much that he's molesting you - and I don't believe you don't have the time to report it - report him before he molests someone else.

    What about your sister? What is she going to do?
