I used to tell people that the loneliness associated with our story made me want to go to AA meetings. I would go and announce that I did not have a drinking problem (food is my big issue) but I just wanted to sit in a room full of people who did not flinch at tough stories.
I once looked up support groups for the families of sex offenders. I did not like what I read. The tone of the one I found suggested that the group was more interested in abuser advocacy and facilitation than I am.
I do not want to facilitate Sea. He is guilty and he needs to change.
I want to hold him accountable for what he has done
I want to tell him the truth and challenge his thinking
I want to prevent any more victims.
I do not believe he can or will police himself, nor do I believe he can ever be alone with a child
ever.
