Answer 1

Answer: A little Tidbit....

Listen and read all these answers...they are all right. And most of all don't be ashamed of what happened to you. I know what you are going through. There are girls all over the world in your situation. People will not criticize you about your pregnancy as you do. They will see you as you are and will help you. Get help ASAP and remember its okay to be afraid and ashamed but not to the point where you hate yourself and don't help yourself. Face your fears because its you and your body that's important.

Answer

The first thing I would do is contact some type of counselor. Tell them you have this problem in your own time, but try to do it as soon as possible. Chances are you will get taken out of that type of unhealthy environment. You need to talk to some type of counselor or a lawyer, at least talk to a doctor.

Answer

Well if your to scared to talk to a conselor on your own, talk to a close friend and see if they would be willing to go with you to do so. This way you have someone there that you trust. I had a friend that that was being abused by her father, and confided in me when I was 14 and I helped her to get out of her situation. By going with her to the school conselors office to discuss the issue

Answer

Being that I am a teacher...I feel that I am somewhat qualified to answer this question. The first step you need to do is confide in either a teacher or counselor at your school. They are mandated reporters and will work with qualified professionals to get you the help that you need and to protect YOU! If there is not a teacher or counselor at your school that you feel compforatable enough to confide in, then please confide in your doctor. Otherwise, you can also call the human services department in your area. They will also be able to get you help. The first step that you need to do, is to tell one of these people! Please do this! I'm sure that you are feeling scared and have many other emotions right now but you need professional help in dealing with this. Please tell one of these people...they WILL help you! My thoughts are with you!

ANOTHER ANSWER

The above answer is the right plan of action. You have been through multiple abuses: neglect, physical abuse, mental abuse, rape, incest (sex by a family member); that's a WHOLE LOT to go through. Start by looking in the phone book for state agencies that help abused kids. (usually the colored pages near the middle) Find an agency that helps abused kids and CALL> they keep it confidential and can't tell your dad you called. IF this is an old posted question and you already have had the baby, you still need to call and get help from trained professionals. You need to be away from your dad. YOU did NOTHING wrong- HE did. Remember that; and please get help no matter what. It will be hard not to be scared of your dad, but YOU CAN DO IT> PLEASE CALL.
