I’m not sure if it is just my family or is sexual molestation a common psychotic problem in the world. During the 80s and the 90s my it seemed like most of my family was on drugs badly but as a child I just figured that it was because of the common excuse that once crack was introduced to the black and urban culture, that was the reason for every ones behavior. Drugs sex and violence seem to take over my family, the older I got the more I learned about the people that surrounded me. At the time when I learned of my uncle’s sickness I was unaware of other family members doing the same things. Fathers were sexually assaulting their own children and manipulating their minds. To make them think that it was normal, brothers and sisters and uncles pretty much using whatever vulnerable female that they can. One of my cousins confided in me that her brother touched her occasionally and her mother would do things like put her in the bathtub and then lay her down and tell her to keep quiet. Another cousin of mine said to me that my uncle who was her father forced her to have sex with him and her brother ever since she was ten years old. Now keep in mind that this is my generation that I am talking about. This problem started with my grandmother’s Parents and siblings carried down two generations as far as I know. What happened before then is beyond me, I ask questions to try and get the truth but the doors always seem to close in my face. The thing that bothers me is that most of them tried to do anything about it. Out of everyone in my family those that would not involve themselves in such activities stayed away but still did nothing to change better yet break the cycle? The more I learned the more I felt the need to protect myself even more since I was on my own. It’s very sad that tragedies can encounter a person life so drastically that the affect a person or shall I say victim will never be able to overcome them. Everybody has a story and everybody deal with their issues
