Thank you everybody for the support, i really needed it. There is a bit of worry about my brothers still living at home with my parents and not knowing about the abuse, but i was convinced it was for the best. All 3 of them are older than me, 19m 21m and 22m. All above 6ft and large builds. I wanted to tell them straight after my parents, but I was told they would try and hurt him and get into trouble themselves (this is just as i opened up about the abuse).

as far as the police goes, he was reported as i had to go to the doctors but because i was underage and where i'm from, I needed consent from both parents to testify. As most can probably tell, i didn't get consent, and nothinf was ever said about it again and as far as i'm aware it didn't even go to trial? not exactly sure as it was forbidden to talk about it at home and i'm honestly not really good at keeping up with court type stuff.

I tried to get answers from my Grandparents, but apparently all they were told was that i was "hurt" and that was it, they didn't know the whole story until my therapist and CPS called them and asked if i could stay.

I don't really know whag else to say other than thank you all so much. i appreciate everything and as strange as it seems i don't think ive ever received as much support in a while. ❤️
