When i was 1 1/2 years old, my dad went to prison for raping my sisters, (who were 5,6 and 9 at the time) and I have been dealing with the side effects for years... Mom keeps telling me its not my fault, that i shouldn't have to worry about it... But knowing what he did when i learned it.. which was when i was probably 6 or 7, really messed up my perception of life, i kept thinking my mom'sside of the family hated me.... and i only know like 3 people from my dad's side. I just can't stop hating a piece of me because im his daughter, and its only worse because his side of the family is full of mental illnesses... When i was a teen, i used to slap fake illnesses on me to feel like i wasn't a mistake, I will be 20 in October 2nd and this stuff still bothers me. I've become really sensitive to those topic and i have panic attacks if im home alone... I just wanted to put my little story out there. Forgive me for taking up your time to read my little vent. I hope everything is well in your life, and if not.. Try and make it better, i promise it'll work eventually.
Dear Fox-Tabulous, I am so sorry this happened, and you don’t have to apologize for sharing your story. What your father did is not your fault. You were a baby at the time, and regardless of how old you were, you did nothing wrong. No one, including your family on your mom’s side, has any reason to hate you because, again, you did not hurt your sisters. While you are your father’s daughter, his actions do not mean something is wrong with you or that you are a bad person. You are your own person and get to decide how you behave and how you treat people. Focus on being good to yourself and other people. It sounds like you could use some help working through all of this. Counselors and therapists can really be helpful because they will listen to you without judgment and help you work through your feelings. I appreciate the positive message you shared with our viewers at the end of your story. We hope that you will consider checking out this link to find a therapist near you, so you can also “try and make it better” because you deserve that too: www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/adolescents-teenagers-14-to-19
The Fox-Tabulous Vixie oh my god. I'm so sorry. I feel so bad for you. I really wish I could help in any way. And no, you did not take up my time to read this.
Thank you, AMAZE for this video. This happens to more boys than people think. I'm fortunate enough to have never been assaulted or abused or have known anyone whom have been assaulted or abused. Unfortunately, other boys aren't so lucky....
Thank God someone finally portrayed a boy for a sexual assault for once. They feel the same exact pain and discomfort as girls and it also happens to them. Maybe not as commonly, but it still happens. Everybody, stay strong! You’re never at fault for something you didn’t intend! Just tell someone you truly trust :)
I'm so glad this video got put out! I'm a girl who's been sexually abused so I'm not in this exact video's demographic, but I've also known quite a few guys friends who've sadly been in the same boat I have. When we would talk about it and our experiences as a sort of a comfort/commiseration conversation between friends, one of the things they always said is that they didn't know it could happen to them like it did with girls. Spreading awareness for male sexual assault is just as important as spreading awareness for female assault. I really wish it was talked about more, as someone who's gone through it myself. Awareness is ALWAYS important, regardless of gender.
Thank you for your comment. We're so sorry that you and your friends have experienced something so awful.

I’m 17 years old, and about a two years ago, I was sexually abused by my father’s friends. When he usually wasn’t looking, they would grope me or touch my butt, even, down there... One tried to rape me but luckily, my father got onto them. They are now in jail, since I my father have footage evidence and me being traumatized by this event. I’m okay now, and I have a boyfriend. But thank you for making a video of male sexual abuse. I have a friend who went through that too. ^^
Itz Sam, we're so sorry this happened to you. We're glad to hear that your father listened to you and helped in keeping you safe. Thank you for your comment. Just speaking up can help others in similar situations.
Extremrly sorry for all that happened- These are NOT his friends. They only meet up with your father so they can take can touch you- i am glad they are in jail
My boyfriend (24) was sexually abused by his girlfriend when he was 19-20. When he told me, I was so angry because of the stigma that comes with men reporting abuse/assault. He started asking the typical questions like, "What if I started liking it? What if I didn't say no or stop?" It broke me inside, as a victim myself. The more we talked, the more he realized what happened, and the more he overcame. He plans to go to therapy soon.
Hey Kat, I am so sorry that both of you were exposed to abuse. It's not your fault and its never too late to tell someone you trust. I hope that both of you find the support that you deserve.

Hey there, I'm really sorry to hear that :( Maybe you should tell your mom so she can keep you safe and get you some help. Of course it's up to you and you don't have to, I just really want that to never happen to you again :(

Can you do one on women who are sexual abusers too? They are pretty much always portrayed as males and so I feel like when a female does it it's seen as less bad even though that's not true and because of stereotypes we get a lot of "A girl overpowered you? You're weak" or "You're so lucky" which is messed up and I feel like you guys would be the best to talk about it. Your videos are always really informative and easy to understand and they deal with these things in a really respectful manner. I think you could do a lot of good combating this harmful stereotype that only serves to protect abusers and even put down their victims.
Hi, Alyssa, thank you so much for your comment and suggestion. We agree, anyone can be a victim no matter a person's gender identity. We'll keep this in mind for future videos.
Amaze, you make wonderfully informative videos, please keep them up, people need to be not afraid to talk about this serious and sensitive subjects, thank you!
update I spoke to a hotline and the helped me with what I need help with an also encouraged me to tell my mom. I told my mom his name and said he assaulted me it was hard telling her but I think I got my message across. she cried when she read about what happened. I help everything since 2018. What made me not want to tell was that he is also my cousin so it really just hurt me that he did that to me and it was not once he did it multiple times. Thanks for the Hotline.
I was sexually assaulted by my brother for 7 years im 12 now and I still git flash backs. my mum found out after her devours. After my mum finding out I wasn't scared to talk about it anymore. My advice if this is happening to you or someone else call the police or tell someone you trust.
It’s awful that you were hurt. You’re not alone, and you deserve help and support. You were able to share here and offer some good advice. Perhaps you could visit RAINN.org to chat with someone or call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673). You deserve the same help you’re suggesting other people need.
Hm, that mother easily accepted his rejection on the pizza even when he slightly raised his voice. If that were my mom she’d throw her chancla at me and tell me to go eat my damn pizza. Tough love, she’s there when I need her but tough when I don’t know I need her
Yet another fantastic video from amaze. It's really important to raise awareness about male sexual assault survivors, and you guys handled this sensitive issue perfectly. This is sort of off topic but, could you guys possibly do a video for intersex awareness day? It's the 26th of October.
I had an experience when i was like 7 years. Now I feel like killing him stabbing with a knife in a cold blood. I had no one to tell that thing. i burned with sadness everyday. That incident ruined my personality. I'm a straight male.
This really helps. Now I don’t know if this is classified as real sexual abuse, but I’ll say it anyway. So I have this classmate, he’s kinda weird. He moans in people ears and says “Oh Daddy!” Every so often. I’m one of his favourite victims for that stuff. Anyway, one day we were outside on the field just chilling, and then he piggy-backed me. I thought it was normal, so I started to jog around, then I felt him moving. I looked behind me and saw him moving his hip area vigorously and making grunting noises. I noticed that his genitals were remarkably close to my bum, so I let go of him. He just laughed and walked away. I thought about it for the whole day. After that I couldn’t really concentrate in class.
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help. Try telling a parent or to find other trusted adults to help you, like another family member, teacher, friend’s parent or neighbor. Keep telling adults until someone believes you. This behavior is likely categorized as sexual assault and is still very wrong.
One time i was sexual abuset by my male friend i think i was 12 when that happened so i toll my female friend and told my teacher and he got supsended. (Sorry for bad spelling im still working on my english)
We're so sorry this happened to you. It wasn't your fault and you are so brave to speak up for yourself. If you ever feel like you need someone to talk to, resources like RAINN.org have volunteers available.
Hi Rat Princess, we're so sorry that this happend to you. Have you talked to an adult that you trust? Its important to take care of yourself. If you think it would be better to speak to someone in confidence, you can visit RAINN.org or 1in6.org. They each have volunteers available to help.
That's awful. Please encourage him to keep telling adults until he gets help. He can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673).
This is a good question. RAINN.org actually has a video about this. Visit this page and watch the video under “How does it work?” to learn more about what happens when you call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673). www.rainn.org/about-national-sexual-assault-telephone-hotline 1in6 has a 24-hour helpline chat and weekly, anonymous chat-based support groups that are facilitated by a counselor. You can check out 1in6.org to find out when the next support group meets.
No matter how hard I look into it about this kind of stuff, I never found the answer I’m looking for and have always been too afraid to say a word, I don’t even know what to do or who to talk to, since I don’t want anyone to get in trouble, and I just want help but I guess I’ll just wait for that, still if anyone understands what I’m trying to get at please, I don’t know what to do but I can’t say my situation if that makes any sense

AMAZE Org Thank you for this, I will try to find the right time and bravery to tell a trusted adult, I think this was a good first step though of trying to reach out, And thank your again
Kids, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by someone you like, but if someone tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's no good! It's your body! No one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to! So what do you do? First, you say no, then you get outta there! Most important, you gotta tell someone you trust, like your parents, your teacher or a police officer
When i was 6, my step brother (15 at the time) came over for the winter and since my family was poor.. I had to sleep with them on the same bed, ehh.. you know what he did after that. To top it all off, it took 4 years just for me to tell my parents; they told the authorities, BUT my stepbrother got FREE therapy and i got nothing.
I am so sorry you experienced this. There are resources like RAINN that can provide support. You can contact a trained crisis professional at the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE or visit rainn.org and use their 24/7 live chat.
I was horribly abused by my older cousin sexually. I can’t even trust my parents. I told his mom (my auntie) and she was so helpful we got help and I felt way better. I also felt hopeless and like I could not get help I thank 1in6.org greatly
I think I'm too late to watch this tho. Because.. I mean like when I was in kindergarten.. Some 16 old boy (his mother was my kindergartens teacher) he tried to rape.. But I run away.. Tho.. But after it I was playing outside and some dude showed me his business...and lastly when I turned 8 I got raped.. I was so scared.. And felt lonely.. So I kept it as secret.. Now my parents doesn't know about it.. Im keeping it for 5 years now.. Still not telling anyone.. So please.. If there's someone who is in the same situation as me.. Its better to tell it to your parents. I know its hard to talk with them. But you should. It will help you to get away from it.
It’s awful that you were hurt and felt completely alone. You mention how hard it is to tell someone what happened, but in spite of this, you suggest that people get help from a parent, guardian or trusted adult. This is so important. Thanks for suggesting that to other viewers. You also say you’re “still not telling anyone,” but we hope you talk to someone you trust and get some help.

Hi Amaze! I really need your advice. My aunt, as a joke, used to grab and smack my butt and make sexualizing comments about my developing body. She didn’t do this with the intent for sexual pleasure on her part or mine. I just want confirmation, is this molestation? It’s hard for me to find resources talking about this specifically because she didn’t do this with the intent of sexual pleasure. Can you send resources that would corroborate that this is molestation if it would be considered it?
I was sexually assaulted in 6th grade by a boy and since I knew a lot about it I instantly knew what happened the outcome was the hard part he went to Iss for only 2 days and I got bullied being called a snitch iss is in school suspension btw
Tionna, I'm so sorry to hear that this happened to you. You are so brave to speak up. Keep speaking up to adults until someone believes you. It's not your fault.
i once watched my best friend (who was standing at the door) looking at her phone for something, and then the principal came behind her, winked at her, slapped her butt with a file and then walked away. she looked so mad and surprised and she was like “umm excuse me”
Hi, Lune Star, you should know that it is always the adult's fault in this situation. A child is not responsible for an adult's actions. If you or know someone who is being sexually abused, we encourage you to speak to an adult that you trust for help. And keep telling adults until someone believes you.
No matter your gender identity, this would not be your fault. If you or someone you know was touched in a way that was not okay or if you were forced to touch someone else in a way that makes you uncomfortable, don’t keep it a secret. Even if the person who did this is an adult or an older kid who told you not to tell anyone, you should tell someone. Tell someone you trust-like a parent, family member, teacher, friend’s parent or neighbor. If the first person you tell doesn’t do anything, tell someone else you trust. Keep telling adults you trust until you get help.

Hi, Alyssa, thank you so much for your comment and suggestion. We agree, anyone can be a victim no matter a person's gender identity. We'll keep this in mind for future videos.
@@amazeorghave y’all made a video like this?
This is overrated
that one dislike is the coach
The other 26 r popes
Amaze, you make wonderfully informative videos, please keep them up, people need to be not afraid to talk about this serious and sensitive subjects, thank you!
Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you .
Now i feel more better .
If you need to communicate about what happened, we encourage you to speak with an adult you trust or visit resources like 1in6.org.
I randomly came across this and this is an awesome way to tackle this kind of subject. Awesome job guys.
''Hey Mom'' *mom walks in* ''You texted?'' XD
I feel so bad for people who got sexual harassment
update
I spoke to a hotline and the helped me with what I need help with an also encouraged me to tell my mom. I told my mom his name and said he assaulted me it was hard telling her but I think I got my message across. she cried when she read about what happened. I help everything since 2018. What made me not want to tell was that he is also my cousin so it really just hurt me that he did that to me and it was not once he did it multiple times. Thanks for the Hotline.
Sending you so much love
LIAR. So many liars in the comment section seeking attention
Need to remember that anyone can be vulnerable to predators, at any age, gender and any orientation
I was sexually assaulted by my brother for 7 years im 12 now and I still git flash backs. my mum found out after her devours. After my mum finding out I wasn't scared to talk about it anymore. My advice if this is happening to you or someone else call the police or tell someone you trust.
It’s awful that you were hurt. You’re not alone, and you deserve help and support. You were able to share here and offer some good advice. Perhaps you could visit RAINN.org to chat with someone or call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673). You deserve the same help you’re suggesting other people need.
I’m always too scared to call hotlines as they might call the police
I need a follow up video of how to tell the parents. Finding the right words is so difficult and these teaching videos never show this part.
Hi there! You are right! We hear you and will work on it.
Hm, that mother easily accepted his rejection on the pizza even when he slightly raised his voice. If that were my mom she’d throw her chancla at me and tell me to go eat my damn pizza. Tough love, she’s there when I need her but tough when I don’t know I need her
Yet another fantastic video from amaze. It's really important to raise awareness about male sexual assault survivors, and you guys handled this sensitive issue perfectly. This is sort of off topic but, could you guys possibly do a video for intersex awareness day? It's the 26th of October.
Thank you for your comment! This means a lot to us. We'll definitely keep the date in mind to share across our social channels.
I had an experience when i was like 7 years. Now I feel like killing him stabbing with a knife in a cold blood. I had no one to tell that thing. i burned with sadness everyday. That incident ruined my personality. I'm a straight male.
2:41 moms be waiting at that door bro
Yea that's hilarious
wolfxxninja sarcasm?
@@unicornrainbowvomit6597 no
hey mom
door: IMMEDIATLEY SLAMS OPEN
awaiting is mother
This really helps.
Now I don’t know if this is classified as real sexual abuse, but I’ll say it anyway.
So I have this classmate, he’s kinda weird. He moans in people ears and says “Oh Daddy!” Every so often. I’m one of his favourite victims for that stuff. Anyway, one day we were outside on the field just chilling, and then he piggy-backed me. I thought it was normal, so I started to jog around, then I felt him moving. I looked behind me and saw him moving his hip area vigorously and making grunting noises. I noticed that his genitals were remarkably close to my bum, so I let go of him. He just laughed and walked away. I thought about it for the whole day. After that I couldn’t really concentrate in class.
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help. Try telling a parent or to find other trusted adults to help you, like another family member, teacher, friend’s parent or neighbor. Keep telling adults until someone believes you. This behavior is likely categorized as sexual assault and is still very wrong.
One time i was sexual abuset by my male friend i think i was 12 when that happened so i toll my female friend and told my teacher and he got supsended.
(Sorry for bad spelling im still working on my english)
We're so sorry this happened to you. It wasn't your fault and you are so brave to speak up for yourself. If you ever feel like you need someone to talk to, resources like RAINN.org have volunteers available.
Fake case it was. You should have remained silent
I wish I knew these things before I met my ex friend. I mean, I was 7, so I wouldn't know that... It.. Was happening
Hi Rat Princess, we're so sorry that this happend to you. Have you talked to an adult that you trust? Its important to take care of yourself. If you think it would be better to speak to someone in confidence, you can visit RAINN.org or 1in6.org. They each have volunteers available to help.
My boyfriend was molested by his ex girlfriend. But nobody believes him because his perpetrator was a female.😢😡
That's awful. Please encourage him to keep telling adults until he gets help. He can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673).
Was his fault
Has anyone ever called RAINN? What were your experiences? Should I even bother calling them?
This is a good question. RAINN.org actually has a video about this. Visit this page and watch the video under “How does it work?” to learn more about what happens when you call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673). www.rainn.org/about-national-sexual-assault-telephone-hotline
1in6 has a 24-hour helpline chat and weekly, anonymous chat-based support groups that are facilitated by a counselor. You can check out 1in6.org to find out when the next support group meets.
Boy: Texts:Hey Mom?
Mom legit 2 seconds after: YoU tExTeD!
im starting to think that thing that happened when i was 15 was not okay
I too SA by my friend (he's a male and I'm a male too but I'm a hetrosexual )at 6 ,at that time I was a person who didn't even know about sex
I guess the only parent I really trust is my mom, my dad sometimes thinks I wanted to things even though I didn’t want to
Nor me my friend, Girl kept touching him in school so he reported, he ended up getting expelled, girl got nothing. Sorry english is not that good
I loved the video, this is really great information and quality content!
What if someone is too scared to talk about it to anyone, even parents or online? But that person feels a lot of pain...?
Hey Julia, we recommend speaking with volunteers at 1in6.org or RAINN.org. They are incredible and can help you in confidence.
Thanks for videos like this
Great Job Sir.!'
No matter how hard I look into it about this kind of stuff, I never found the answer I’m looking for and have always been too afraid to say a word, I don’t even know what to do or who to talk to, since I don’t want anyone to get in trouble, and I just want help but I guess I’ll just wait for that, still if anyone understands what I’m trying to get at please, I don’t know what to do but I can’t say my situation if that makes any sense
I am so sorry this is happening to you. This is not okay. It is not your fault, and you have done nothing wrong. We want to make sure you get some help.

AMAZE Org
Thank you for this, I will try to find the right time and bravery to tell a trusted adult, I think this was a good first step though of trying to reach out, And thank your again
Kids, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by someone you like, but if someone tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, that's no good! It's your body! No one has the right to touch you if you don't want them to! So what do you do? First, you say no, then you get outta there! Most important, you gotta tell someone you trust, like your parents, your teacher or a police officer
I get that reference XD
@@AngelDelight69 That’s cool. My profile picture is like a little hint
sonic is wise
This video is very informative.
When i was 6, my step brother (15 at the time) came over for the winter and since my family was poor.. I had to sleep with them on the same bed, ehh.. you know what he did after that. To top it all off, it took 4 years just for me to tell my parents; they told the authorities, BUT my stepbrother got FREE therapy and i got nothing.
I am so sorry you experienced this. There are resources like RAINN that can provide support. You can contact a trained crisis professional at the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE or visit rainn.org and use their 24/7 live chat.
I was horribly abused by my older cousin sexually. I can’t even trust my parents. I told his mom (my auntie) and she was so helpful we got help and I felt way better. I also felt hopeless and like I could not get help I thank 1in6.org greatly
I wish I cloud know about this kind of video earlier...
this is how you get help
My own female doctor did this to me right in front of a female nurse who was supposed to be the “chaperone.” What a joke.
I think I'm too late to watch this tho. Because.. I mean like when I was in kindergarten.. Some 16 old boy (his mother was my kindergartens teacher) he tried to rape.. But I run away.. Tho.. But after it I was playing outside and some dude showed me his business...and lastly when I turned 8 I got raped.. I was so scared.. And felt lonely.. So I kept it as secret.. Now my parents doesn't know about it.. Im keeping it for 5 years now.. Still not telling anyone.. So please.. If there's someone who is in the same situation as me.. Its better to tell it to your parents. I know its hard to talk with them. But you should. It will help you to get away from it.
Sky Galaxy Wolf Queen UA-camr it’s never too late to tell someone what happened to you. It can take time to be ready to tell somebody.
@@tommiejones2808 I want to.. But it's just hard tho..
It’s awful that you were hurt and felt completely alone. You mention how hard it is to tell someone what happened, but in spite of this, you suggest that people get help from a parent, guardian or trusted adult. This is so important. Thanks for suggesting that to other viewers. You also say you’re “still not telling anyone,” but we hope you talk to someone you trust and get some help. You’re not alone, and you deserve help and support. You were able to share here and offer some good advice. Perhaps you could visit RAINN.org to chat with someone or call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673). You deserve the same help you’re suggesting other people need.
Please tell soemone! If your parents don't believe you tell someone at school!
Liar. Ur making up fake stories to get attention
Good thing that it's kinda rare for us girls
Man, I wish I would’ve known this when I was 5-6 years old, but I didn’t know what to do
Jeez man so sorry on what happen 😔
Hi, I am so sorry that this has happened. It's not your fault that you did not know what to do at that time. Please talk to a trusted adult, so they know what happened and can help you. If the first person you tell doesn’t do anything, tell someone else, like another relative, teacher or neighbor that you trust. Keep telling adults until you get help. You can also call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1(800) 656-HOPE (4673).
What if it was a family member who did that?
Its still wrong
Not much you can really do about it
Hi Amaze! I really need your advice. My aunt, as a joke, used to grab and smack my butt and make sexualizing comments about my developing body. She didn’t do this with the intent for sexual pleasure on her part or mine. I just want confirmation, is this molestation? It’s hard for me to find resources talking about this specifically because she didn’t do this with the intent of sexual pleasure. Can you send resources that would corroborate that this is molestation if it would be considered it?
I was sexually assaulted in 6th grade by a boy and since I knew a lot about it I instantly knew what happened the outcome was the hard part he went to Iss for only 2 days and I got bullied being called a snitch iss is in school suspension btw
Tionna, I'm so sorry to hear that this happened to you. You are so brave to speak up. Keep speaking up to adults until someone believes you. It's not your fault.
@@amazeorg thank you and I did that was two years ago
womp womp

Fake story by attention seekers
i once watched my best friend (who was standing at the door) looking at her phone for something, and then the principal came behind her, winked at her, slapped her butt with a file and then walked away. she looked so mad and surprised and she was like “umm excuse me”
That is awful! Please let your friend know that she can talk to an adult that she trusts to get the help she deserves.
PLEASE! Tell someone and tell your friend to tell someone herself! This can lead to anything!!
random person we’ve left the school, nothing else happened
Serious I was Frozen solid I don't memory how long I was frozen befor some one got me out of it it was like we was in Alaska when it snowed
Oh sigh... My mom denies everything i say. ❤

This never happend to me but it is bad so if this happends to me ima tell an adult
Soda in a Jar?! Is going to lose all the gas
It can happen to anyone
Great video
Are you a bad person if you allow the person to ?
Hi, Lune Star, you should know that it is always the adult's fault in this situation. A child is not responsible for an adult's actions. If you or know someone who is being sexually abused, we encourage you to speak to an adult that you trust for help. And keep telling adults until someone believes you.
I wish I knew before talking to mom and adult sibling if thy did nothing and gaslighting me it will make thing million time worst
exactly. guys can also get abused by girls and it is a real issue
great videos
Ok it’s really weird but I love the background music I kinda wanna know what it was
I want to know why I react like that why my action was like that,it left handicap
So I’m a guy and what would happen if a student touch me?
No matter your gender identity, this would not be your fault. If you or someone you know was touched in a way that was not okay or if you were forced to touch someone else in a way that makes you uncomfortable, don’t keep it a secret. Even if the person who did this is an adult or an older kid who told you not to tell anyone, you should tell someone. Tell someone you trust-like a parent, family member, teacher, friend’s parent or neighbor. If the first person you tell doesn’t do anything, tell someone else you trust. Keep telling adults you trust until you get help.
2:42 Wow that was fast.
Happened with me when I was 7-9 ...
this is so embarrassing. i dont know what to do.

My older sister keeps saying she wants to “snuggle”, and she keeps touching me, and kissing me on my mouth and idk what to do bc it doesn’t stop
