Evering the pant 20 Joars:¥have struggled emotionally and psycho- logically to get over the nightmare, I have had tunnel! vision all this time in regard to what happened to me. I never thought about what could be happening to other chil- dren. There are other children, ages 6 to 10, in this same branch of the family. It suddenly occurred to me that this hideous thing could be happening to these young girls, and I am deeply concerned. Do I have a moral obligation to let someone know what I went through, or is it better to remain quiet? I am becoming in- creasingly terrified that other young girls in the family might be going through the same hor- rors I experienced, and I am unable to sleep af night. It I speak out, it will probably cause problems between me and my parents. What should I do, Ann? Please help me make the right decision. — Torn in Texas Dear Texas: By all means, tell the parents of these children about your experiences with that family member and urge them to speak to their children or permit you to do so.
