You are still a victim even if you appeared happy and content, for whatever reason, whether that be for safety or from grooming. You are still a victim even if you fought and/or looked uncomfortable. There is NO qualification. The apologia I have been seeing is so abhorrent.
going to church while being abused was so confusing. every time i tried to start conversations about what was going on, i was told God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers. i wasn’t a strong soldier, i was ten. why was God having me molested?
