I’ve written about sibling abuse in different forms a number of times.
I believe it is one of the most ignored forms of abuse that happens to children. Whether it is emotional, physical or sexual.
I saw this report of a victim of sibling sexual abuse getting justice after many years and believe it is so important to raising awareness of this issue.
The article also highlights the challenges that go with it. How parents respond when and if they are first told. The family connections that make it harder to avoid your abuser even decades later. The lifelong impact of the abuse.
I can only imagine the courage and persistence it took to seek justice after all this time for the victim and what the process cost them emotionally.
