Miss N, If you call a Rape Crisis Center or the RAINN hotline they can help you find free counceling. They will also stay on the phone with you and help you through the really tough times. As long as you are not a minor you won't have to worry about your family finding out. The councelor is not allowed to tell anyone they even see you as a client. If you are a minor the councelor would have to report the child abuse. Or if you are in danger of suicide the councelor would have to report it. Let us know how we can help. Kim

Welcome back, I'm glad to hear you are doing so well. French fries and coke should be a food group I think. So yummy. Kim

Kitty, Wow, you are so strong to want to stay and help even after what you have been through. I can't imagine how dificult this must be for you, but I'm sure you must feel so torn at times between telling what happened and being able to stay and do what you obviously love. We are here to support you so lean on us during this dificult time. Kim
