Signs we missed and strategies to use
In The Aftermath
THE WHY:
Around eighteen years ago our lives began to change in a rather devastating way – although we as a family did not realise this at that time.
We had been a fairly typical family with three teenagers, and although we’d had our share of dramas over the past few years, there was nothing to indicate the emotional rollercoaster we had just boarded.
The major disruption to our ordinary lives had been the revelation of our childrens’ abuse at the hands of my father.
