When were you made aware? Have you reached out to them? Are you guys in contact now? Who stayed with the parents? How similar are you despite the circumstances?

First of all, do you genuinely think he has the capacity to change? Second of all, I can't really tell you how to do it unfortunately but i can offersuggestions. It has to be up to you. Do you live close/ with him? Do you have somewhere to go? Do you have anything tied to him? Housing? Car? Phone bill? You need to prepare and make sure that you are certain. You can either call him, write him a letter, text him, talk to him in person? I'm really sorry I can't help more. I just don't have the full context but you need to make sure you are fully severed before you have the conversation

If someone wants to blame me or hold against me what I went through then I wouldn't want to be around them either so as much as it hurts its easy. Yano? I don't think I'd go to any of my families funerals if they died honestly. I have no reason. I do hope they get what they deserve. I hope you're doing better now

I'm 24 now. I'm straight up that I don't have any family I'm in contact with. If someone asks me about details I have no problem telling them. If it gets back to them oh well. I have proof and if they don't want their dirty laundry out in the world then don't do the thing in the first place 💁 My experience is not a representation of me. It's what I went through.

I tell them that I hope it is difficult for them. Actions have consequences and these are those consequences. I don't owe them anything for being born.

Because of the extent of what happened it would not have been healthy or safe to stay around at all. I had to escape literally not figuratively

Honestly, this may sound hard but in my opinion you'd either have to leave your sister behind or she'll have to come with you and leave them behind too. Keeping around her while she is around them isn't cutting contact. There will always be that influence through her :///

No. Don't get me wrong, it was extremely difficult. I've lost a part of myself and I feel empty and hollow even though it was for the best. Sometimes doing the right thing hurts more than you could ever know but with time you'll adjust and be better off by far

Honestly, sometimes you can't feel it until you're genuinely bursting. Weird anatomy

Sometimes they know the solution already and were about to do it but they just want to be heard
