I'm sorry your dad didn't protect you the way you deserved to be treasured and protected.<br /><br />My sister was 12 when my dad saw a 20-year-old Franciscan priest force a kiss on her in our driveway. She was very upset and burst into tears when she came into the house. Dad didn't say a word and continued to let the guy come to the house and give my sister unwelcome gifts (a teddy bear, etc.) She was relieved when he got transferred. To this day, I have no idea why my dad didn't protect any of us, any time. I just don't get it.Mrs4444https://www.blogger.com/profile/06426176094895489541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12565507.post-64662780862257978142012-03-31T04:03:06.967-04:002012-03-31T04:03:06.967-04:00Hi Tracie,

I'm so sorry you went through this. I know how hard it is to have to remember and try to deal with.<br /><br />I too got a call from my mother after cutting off contact, on my birthday, after changing my phone number to unlisted. A family member gave her my number. I changed it again. It ruined that birthday for me. I'm sorry that he did not protect you. <br /><br />Good and healing thoughts to you.<br /><br />KateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12565507.post-23158261077347562972012-02-29T15:23:42.359-05:002012-02-29T15:23:42.359-05:00Tracie, you are so brave to share this.
