My mom doesn't believe that I was sexually abused by my dad?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

This happens all the time believe it or not. Mothers and Fathers cannot believe that their partner would abuse their child. It seems so impossible to them. One of the best things to do is if you have a friend or a sister or a grandparents---TELL THEM. they will take you in, help you along the way, and help you seek the right sort of help. If no one is beleiving you, be sure to tell a teacher, preacher, or adult outside of the family who will not be biased. There are plenty of hotlines to call too--- in the mean time, consider telling the police. they will pull you out of the home and into protective care until its resolved. your mom may not believe you but sometimes telling and sticking to your guns is the best thing to do. do not back down. you're 17. legally, you can be emancipated. really TELL EVERYONE. I know it's hard but it's the best shot you have. Check out the website below. Maybe it will help. and here's the number to the sexual abuse and incest etc. hotline. Call if you need help and to talk. They will walk you through every step. I think you can access online too. 1.800.656.HOPE If you dont have access to a phone, try to call through an online messenger or send a private email. I hope this helps you!

this kind of reaction is quite common, there are a lot of issues involved, guilt over not doing something, fear of the family breaking up and of having to deal with an issue, old hurts coming up...

at this moment the only thing that matters is your safety and that of your other siblings. if your dad is still around. then there's danger your other siblings are suffering or may suffer abuse as we,, i'd go directly to child services and ask their help.
in your other post you say your mother is afraid you'll be sent to foster homes, perhaps it's better than keeping you in an abusive family.
the fact that you're home schooled could be an indication that both your parents are colluding in this abuse thing and are trying to keep you away from a system that may notice what is going on.

so, i'd call the child services hot-line.

Can you be more specific of what occurred? You don't need to be graphic. I'm asking because your mother is claiming it wasn't intentional, and trying to better understand what she might be referring to.

This isn't uncommon. Your mom loves your dad, but she knows that he is in the wrong. Really, your mom is now in the wrong too, so perhaps you should tell someone else who will actually help you.

Call the cops.

she need to catch him in the act.
