Re: child abuse?

I agree with you, what is up with the uncle? Something is not right there. She talks about how she doesn't want to let it out because it would hurt everyone else. Well lets think just a minute, she says that her dad and uncle were best friends but she would rather hurt than tell what happened to her. To me she is protecting her dad because maybe the uncle did abuse her. Or maybe all of the run around stuff is a cop out and her parents do know but she doesn't know they know. Her dad confronted the uncle, he kills himself, the mother has the doctor do an exam to see if there are any signs of abuse and all the while this girl is hurting and afraid to open up for fear of hurting her parents when they may already know.

Sorry, I am letting my thoughts run away with me. I do think this is very interesting and I would love to know how it turns out if and when you (Anna)find out.

I also think that she has been hurt in some way with the trust issue and so she is afraid to reach out to you. I think you are doing a great job and I hope things work well for you and the girl.
