Wanted to add/clarify the type: think sneaky, deceptive, creepy, NOT domineering physical abuser, although those types are sexual abusers too. I can see George being much like my uncle... He manipulated situations to get me alone, and... my family also kept trying to throw me together with him at family parties and such long after they knew. I never let him be near me again or my daughter!
I do understand and never would I compare my experience with yours but I did have a situation happen to me where I was driving (18 yrs old) and a man exposed himself to me and then ran me off the road. People behind got his tag number and reported it. Turns out he was the son of a man I worked with. I went to court to testify and was asked what I thought was proper punishment (back in 60's) I said he needs counseling which he was required to do. I finally had to leave my job because there were many who sympathized with the father and thought I should have just kept my mouth shut. So I do understand. People can be cruel but when it's your family that won't listen....pretty bad. jmo
