We are almost through our first year of dealing with our daughter's abuse. We've been to a lot of classes, therapy sessions, and court dates, and learned more about child sexual abuse than we ever wanted to. We haven't found much information on our particular situation where one parent is also a victim of child sexual abuse. There are plenty of resources for survivors, and plenty of resources for parents of abused children, but nothing specific for both combined. To say it makes things more complicated is a huge understatement. I would like to hear from other non-offending spouses who are dealing with their children's abuse, and their survivor spouses reactions at the same time.

Hello Cruisin,
Im a little confused do you mean your daughter was abused and so was your spouse? By the same person or was your spouse abused as a child as well and never talked about it. I'm a little confused.
Thanks,
Silverthorne

My wife was a victim as a child and is now the parent of a child victim.

That must be very difficult for your wife. Did she ever get any counseling or assistance in dealing with the issues? Maybe she and her baby can go together now and work on healing and boding together. The guilt must be tremendous for any parent let alone for a fellow victim. There's no need for her to tackle all that by herself with so many resources available. You sound like a really supportive husband. There's half the battle won right there.
