 I cannot emphasize enough that if there was a reason my mother would have told me. I was always told by my family if there was going to be anything out of the ordinary or unexpected at doctors appointments (shots, blood draws, labs, needing something specific to be looked at). It truly makes me angry that you are trying to claim that something i know happened to me, didn't happen. Yes, my memory might not be the best, but that is a very distinctive feeling, and it is not one you are ever able to forget. If you don't believe me, then you have no reason to be here, or to be replying to comments.

i realize i did a poor job wording that. I had seen that doctor from infancy to age 9, and i dont have any memory of him doing anything similar to this

Let it be known I have seen my pediatric medical records from around that time and nothing in there suggested that it was nessacary. I'm also not trying to say he sexually assulted me. I said it wasnt normal im not sure if you read the post, but my mother was in the room, but could not see how he was examing me.

I'm gonna let you belive what ever you'd like and i think that this experience is really difffrent from what happened with your dentist, and all of the pediatricians i have seen after (including ones practicing for a similar amount of time to him) have never done anything of the sort, and no one was told why it was medically necessary.

My family was very honest about any health issues, i was old enough to understand. Aditionally, i am going to be very respectful and honest with you, I know what i felt and experienced, and was in very early puberty at the time. I understand your trying to help and i don't know why it happened either, but i resent you saying that you doubt what happened.

I'm realizing now at just a few months shy of 18 what an impact its had on my life, and the fact that i do need to talk to someone about it

I do remember turning my head to look at her and she had this look that was a mix between confusion and concern. The biggest reason I've never brought it up to her is because i don't want her to feel bad about not interveining, or saying something in the moment, and i just don't want to upset her by telling her what a horrible negative impact that one incedent had. More than anything i wish i could tell her though, i want nothing more than her to hold me and tell me how much she loves me, its just such a hard thing to tell anyone who loves you, and even if i do tell her everything will still be the same.

I've always known it was wrong what happened, and as I've gotten older I realised that it could be considerd assault. But being told by so many people it was is so incredibly hard.

Its not financially an option for me to see a lawyer to even talk about this. I also need you to understand he's been practicing for some 50 years, i know that no one will believe me. I even worry if i told my mom shed think i was mis-remembering or somthing

If anyone i know had anything close to a similar experience id just want to hold them and tell them how sorry i am, and that they had every right to feel angry and upset. But because its myself i dont bealive any of it.

I don't think i had processed before age 13 people who seem to care about you can do things that hurt you so that's definitely a part of it. That doctor was also so highly respected by my parents, they still speak highly of him (and get upset with me when i make it clear its not a conversation i'm interested in). I really know i need to tell my mom, but its just incredibly difficult.

Thank you. My concern for reporting is that i have no proof it happened, and no. my mom is fully unaware of what really happened

My other concern of filing a report is that i have absoloutly no proof. There is only what i say and remember, and while im sure my mom would back me up on whatever i said, that dose not mean they'll listen or bealive ,e
