My instant reaction when she said her sister has anxiety was the stepdad abused his own daughter. Or she knows about the absuse if her older sister and is carrying that. Anxiety has a starting point. This family has a lot of secrets. Imagine what that little sister is carrying around with her. I think the conversation with the younger sister and other professionals will actually help the younger sister. And I would deeply evaluate with those professionals if any visitation with the stepdad is necessary due to what happened and maybe also happened with the 14 year old.

Kids can also overhear adult conversations or other people gossiping/talking about the situation. There are many ways to the same result.

Sure...it is a bunch of assumptions, but until someone talks to the younger daughter and finds out no one is going to know.

It's not always supervised. The mum was right there on the couch when it happened to this girl. Abuse happens in seconds, with other adults in the next room, when the other adult is making a cup of tea or goes to the loo. The younger sister has severe anxiety - why is that?

When I divorced, my State required a parenting class. I learned that a child has a 300% higher chance of being abused by a step parent or boyfriend after divorce. I stayed single while finishing raising my daughter after hearing that. Sadly, many women are unable or unwilling to be alone, so they'll choose men over their children.

Told my counselor about an event; she then had me tell my dad and stepmother in front of her my experience of being "nonviolently" raped annnnnd ... then nothing. It's never been talked about again. I'm 40 now and heard stepmom recently be dismissive about a story from a woman with downs syndrome who also claimed she was raped. She said something to the effect of, "there's no way she didn't want sex, she's so flirty and got what she wanted." My jaw dropped and I realized, "Oh my god that's why they never brought it up again. They probably think I made it up or that I "asked" for it. What the heck!"

Her sister likely already knows something is up. We had a predator in our family, and it always felt like something was off, but it was crazy making that we could never get a clear answer. Years later, we found out bits of the truth, but never the full picture because the victim never told. Giving her sister the truth will be hard but could validate things the sister is already suspecting.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. A predator has an access to a minor and the odds are that if it happened to the caller most likely something similar could have happened to her sister and maybe the sister had the same situation - she told mom but mom “didn’t believe” her. It’s too dangerous to trust a predator with a story behind… at some point they will want to try it again so why risk? And the father I am sorry he needs to be responsible for what he’s done.

A Man could accidentally walk in on an 8-year-old wearing nothing and the question what were you wearing still shouldn't apply. If he is turned on by a child, that is not normal. Women who put men above their children are almost as bad as the pedophiles themselves. Most Moms would move heaven and earth to protect their children, so a Mom who turns a blind eye to abuse is not normal. Both of those adults failed her. Now, as an adult, she does not want to fail her sister.
