Why did my mum let my uncle rape me a rather confused mum asked me yesterday, could I add her experience to the blog in the hope that someone, anyone can give her the answers she so desperately needs.
Why Did My Mum Let My Uncle Rape Me?
My uncle raped me from the ages of 6-8. My mother knew, I told her yet she did nothing to help me, she did not report him to the police. Social Services became involved and they ushered her to report the sexual abuse, yet still she refused. My uncle then moved out of our family home some time later.
I worried as my uncle who had raped me had gone to live with his sister, she had kids too, was he going to rape them? My dad kicked him out of the house and that’s when he moved in to his sister’s home. My dad won’t talk to me now, he says he does not like me, and I don’t know why as he knows what his brother did to me and he’s still having tea & cake with him like he didn’t do it, that’s what makes me so hurt.
I have proof on paper he rape me from Social Services reports, I wanted to go to the police when I was 18 but my mum told me not to, if I did she would have nothing else to do with me.
He was living in Ireland and he had come over here to England so my dad offered his brother a place to stay. Each night when he came home he would come into my bedroom, raping me. I didn’t tell anyone but one day I told my cousin and she told her mum and it went around the family and that was when my mum and dad finally found out.
I remember I was in the kitchen making toast and my mum came in and said is it true? I said was true? She said you know what I am talking about. I say yes.

Go to the police hun, any mother who could let someone do that to her child isn’t worth bothering with anyway! I wish you all the best xx
I’d go police hun don’t let him get away with it any longer big hugs xx
im afraid i can’t offer an answer hunni, but i can offer my support. huge hugs sweet pea x x x
Im so sorry to hear what happened hun but can I say that your ‘mother’ doesnt deserve you.
Id say report it. If he can do it once he can do it again.
Hugs xx
If i were you i would report it now hun no matter how long ago it happened you need to do this too move on and to be honest if your parents arent going to support you they have no right to be called parents (my opinion) good luck to you hun xx
big hugs hun. no one can answer this but your “mother”. but i would seriously go to the police now hun. you do not owe your parents any thing is they can let that happen to you
So sorry to hear this. Please go to the police and report it, people like that shouldn’t be on the streets. Xx
Maybe she didn’t want the shame on her family… Which is, in no way a justifiable answer for the hell she has sat back and allowed you to go through. And your father too is just as bad. Please do report him for the rapes. He needs to be punished and put on the sex offenders register for life. He is more than capable of doing it again. X
Because your mother is as bad as him go to the police they can both be charged your still alive through it so u must be a strong amazing woman if u got through that u can get through anything
Go to the police hun! He can’t get away with it any longer than he already has done. As for the question why did your mother not do anything no one can answer that except her. I’m sorry to be blunt but a mother like that doesn’t deserve the title mother. Be strong hun x
Unfortunately I cant answer that question. The only person who can answer it is your so called “mother”. I am so sorry for for all you have been through. You should go to the police hun and tell them. He needs to suffer like you have. Big hugs to you and you are so brave for sharing this xx
Go to the police hun, how many others can he rape all the time he’s not behind bars?! How could your mum and dad sit by and let it happen? Aww hun, big hugs xx
I honestly can’t answer the question you ask and I’m sorry. I can’t understand how any mother could let him get away with it, and worse say she’ll disown you if you go to the police. I’m sorry you have such a monstrous family. I hope you can come to terms with it in time.
Honestly there is no valid reason she should have let your uncle do this… I would go to the police hun. He should be punished for doing such an awful thing. I dont understand how your parents could sit by and let him do that to you. They should want to protect you. xx
You’re mum was probably in denial or scared but that’s no excuse for her letting it happen. Go to the police and get it sorted once and for all you deserve justice for what has been done!! Ix
i have no idea why your mom let this happen but there is no way she should have. go to the police, you dont want this happening to anyone else, this man is a danger to children. as for your mom saying she wont have contact with you if you do she needs to realise she is privileged to be allowed in your life, not the other way round. she is not worth it if she doesnt. im sorry for what happened to you and can only wish you happiness in the rest of your life x
Big hugs chick xxx
You do what you feel is right for you to do, never mind what anyone else thinks xxx
I can’t think of a single reason why your mum would let that happen! Big hugs hun! Sounds like ur better off without ur parents
first of all massive hugs hunni 4 telling ur story , secondly i’d go to the police , if ur mum does not suport u through this n turns her back on u then shes not worth the heartache as she seems to not have compassion 4 her own daughter , stay strong and talk to the police xx
Can’t understand why your mum would let it happen, I would want to do anything I could to protect my children huge hugs Hun x
I really do NOT no how your mother and father allowed this to happen so I’m sorry I can’t answer your question but I would say go to the police hun and report all 3 of them your uncle for raping you and your mother and father for not doing anything about it you are such a strong women to go though what you have been though and then to tell your story my heart go’s out to you big hugs hub all the best an keep us updated xxxxx

I don’t even no what to say the 2 people in your life who are there to protect you? I would go to the police and speak out if your mum doesn’t talk to you so what? Really lovely woman she is letting her baby get abused by her uncle I’m sorry that this happened to you
