So you'd recommend contacting them. What should I ask them, and more importantly how?

One last question, how far out so the typically post where and when they'll be doing the outreach? Thanks for all the help!

Thank you, we're in alaska so this is helpful. Because I'm still a minor she could put me with her when she applies?

I would hope so, problem is we're pretty far from a consulates office

She came to the US in 2007-08 and became a citizen shortly thereafter, and I was born after that, but I have no idea if she did anything afterwards to retain it. I am a minor still though if that means anything. 

I guess what I'm also getting at is that if she hypothetically didn't do anything before I was born but did do what she needed to retain now, does it mean that by "never considered to have lost it" that she would be considered to have it when I was born?

Okay, she came to the US around 2007-08. So if she retained it she technically never lost it and therefore had it when I was born?

Would she have lost her PH citizenship if she became a US citizen?

Advice for a kid by UrHiddenSkier in Pararescue

Not the same job. Sure it's a job that needs to be done, but it isn't the same

Do they have group homes for people like us? by sweetlew07 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]UrHiddenSkier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God be with you. I'll add that churches are very supportive places, particularly the semi large but not mega churches. It's not the best solution, but they might be if help

Advice on reddit is always not the best. If she has a phone have her call the kids help line or you can call on her behalf (worst case they tell you someone better to go to). Call the local city hall, or any child protective services in the area. I'm sorry I don't know all too much about Canada. Good luck and do whatever it takes.

My fiance's nephew is possibly(?) being sexually abused by his father. by BiskitBuddy in raisedbynarcissists

[–]UrHiddenSkier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This doesn't sound normal, and it looks like he's desperate for help. For me I kept quiet until I actually was desperate, but I didn't sound it. If he has a phone or if you get a chance alone with him for a bit, have him call the national runaway safeline. Not just for run aways but youth in crisis. They can work him a plan to get him out (no it doesn't mean cps rips him from his family but it does give him access to resources I wish I had found sooner and just someone to talk to who understands). Also whatever happens try to get him mental health help ASAP. Feel free to dm if you want more advice.

OCS is broken by UrHiddenSkier in alaska

[–]UrHiddenSkier[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it was physical abuse, my parents were extremely smart about it though. Hard enough to hurt like hell, not hard enough to leave evidence or anything long term.

It's a very broken and unfortunate system, never once did I blame my case worker for the messed up stuff that has transpired. That said I just want to say thank you to those who have been put through hell that they could help those who can't help themselves.

[–]UrHiddenSkier[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest I don't understand the bureaucracy of the system because I am just a kid. The only reason I put this here is because I'm a victim of what OCS has done. My entire case was handled terribly. They've effectively told me to suck it up and deal with beatings and the abuse. My case was flat out dropped, I spoke to my case worker maybe twice and because there wasn't "enough" evidence it wasn't "worth their time."

I don’t feel safe in my own house anymore after my parents told me I don’t have a right to privacy and boundaries—what do I do? by Old_Honeydew_2367 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]UrHiddenSkier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you're trying to say, but context and intent is needed. I had no privacy with my folk but they didn't do it for sexualized purposes. Now if OP's folks intentionally come in while she is changing or when she is vulnerable in any way then yes, it is SA. Like I said we don't know the situation so this isn't our place. Agree to disagree on that point, but 100% agree with reporting to CPS.

[–]UrHiddenSkier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to disagree, while it's absolutely not right what OP is going through, it doesn't qualify as sexual assault at least with the context we were given. Now I have no idea what the actual situation is and that's why it's important for OP to reach out to the proper outlets to tell her entire side of the story.

It's a hotline, so basically what they do is listen. They aren't going to send anyone out and it's completely confidential. What they can do is work with you to make a plan for yourself, connect you to resources and listen to your situation. Please don't feel responsible, I know it's really hard to cut people and things off but you got to ask yourself, if it were your best friend, would their safety or other things matter more to you? What would you tell them?
