What the hell do I do? Family member doing monstrous thing.
I just learned that my brother has admitted to molesting one of his daughters. He is now in jail. I am heartsick, and can't sleep. I have a daughter of my own and can't fathom what it would take to make me hurt her so. I am very angry and very sorry for the children. She has a twin sister, and a half-brother. I personally know how children share their pain.
Some background, I know he and at least two others of my siblings were molested/raped as children. I'm not sure my parents knew, but as a parent I don't know how they couldn't. Heads stuck too far into their bibles, I guess.
I can't justify his actions, but I also feel very bad for him too. It hurts.
