My mother will not forgive, function as she should have done ✅. Blame no one 1️⃣ never, as I was to forgive myself. My foster parents, try to adopt me and my beloved, sister, life gives us many lessons to learn indeed. Have a nice weekend.

True enough, my mother can not and never will function as a person, she will be eighty three years old , September 1. Soon. I have a lot more compassion and understanding of her mental health, drinking, chasing men. She made the choice of not speaking to me . I will not argue about this matter. She is a human being and deserves my support and consideration, for compassionate care.

This is true. She was telling me everything, when this happened. I found out by that my mother was raped as a young child by my grandfather. She is not the same. Drunk Abusive. More than likely she is a mental health facility. We have not spoken in over thirty years.

45 years of working with all ages of survivors - so HAPPY to hear about this resource for everyone, thank you! Any acknowledgement or accountability by perps has always been abysmal (with often so many barriers in the legal arena) and part of the difficulty some survivors feel as an impediment to healing; however, years ago Bill O'Hanlon, MS, (as one important voice) talked strongly about post-traumatic success: https://leadingedgeseminars.org/event/take-these-broken-wings-three-crucial-ways-to-turn-post-traumatic-stress-into-post-traumatic-success/ I thought people might appreciate this resource also, amongst many.

Thank you, Susan for this interview and thank you Jess for coming forward. My own children were thwarted by the so called justice system in bringing their abuser to real justice. I am hoping the changes Jess talks about are made.
