Middle School and High School
Posted 12th January 2011 at 09:51 AM by lavenderskies
Where I lived at middle school was 5th-8th grade. When I was in 5th grade I had a neighbor who was an alcoholic. He lived at home with his parents and he was in his 30's. I had to walk past his house from my bus stop. I remember he would always yell at me and tell me to come see him and stuff. Then one day he chased me was grabbing private areas through my clothes. I got away and ran home. My parents were in the yard working. When I calmed down and told my father, he went inside, got a knife and walked to the neighbors. I remember he held a knife to his throat and told him he better not even look at me again. I remember the police would watch me walk home many times after that.
I went through a similar experience 2 years later in 7th grade. I had gone to my grandfather's house with my dad. My aunt and 2 uncles lived there also. I had one uncle who was always a bit strange to me, but harmless, or so I thought. My dad was busy helping my aunt and uncle so I asked the "strange" uncle if he wanted to play video games. They had an atari and every game you can imagine. All the games were arranged in this big case so you could see all the titles at once. I remember he got it all hooked up and asked me what I wanted to play. I chose a game and he said no. So I chose another game and he said no. At some point he put his arm around me and grabbed me between my legs pulling me onto his lap and placing my hand on his genitals. I didnt know what to do so I kept naming the games, I went through every single game in the case and he kept saying no. He was trying to get inside my clothes and thankfully my dad walked in. My uncle was able to play it off and we left. That night I told my mom so she could tell my dad. Instead she made me tell him. I was so mad at her for humiliating me like that. My mom called my uncle and my dad listened in without my uncle knowing. He admitted it all. Then an hour later my grandfather called and said my uncle admitted it out of fear of my father and that nothing happened. We had no contact with my grandfather or the rest of the family until my grandfather became very ill and was dying. My dad always believed me though.

| | I forgot I was going to include high school here. So I will include that in this comment. I was a good kid. I was not into drugs at all, I hated them. My freshman year when I was 14, I heard my mom on the phone. I heard her telling someone that the person I grew up knowing as my Aunt, was really my half sister. My mom had another daughter she had allowed her parents to adopt. I remember turning to my mom and saying "you are Jenni's mom", she panicked and got off the phone. She did admit it all though. My mom and I had a horrid relationship for the most part after that. The abusive tendancies she had when I was a child returned. I can remember her having me in the kitchen floor with a knife to my throat and my little brother pulling her off me. I can also remember I was putting wood into our fireplace and she and I were fighting and she shoved me so my hands went into the fire. Then one month before I turned 16 I was so full of hurt and anger that I made a horrific mistake, I went out drinking with friends. It was that night I lost my virginity to a boyfriend. We were in the backseat of a car and there were 3 people in the front seat. Its then that my life began to really spiral out of control. Three days after that night my mom and I were fighting again. I said to her "someone has to go is it going to be me or you". I meant we could not live together any longer all we did was fight. She called my dad at work and told him I threatened to kill her and that I was in my room packing my clothes to run away after I killed her. I was in my room cleaning and reorganizing my clothes in my drawers. He came home and I was taken to the hospital. I spent several weeks in a psych ward. They ordered family counseling due to my mom's abuse and she refused to go. My dad came to see me every day. I missed my curfew twice in high school. Once was traffic, the other time I nearly died in a car wreck and was in the trauma unit. |
