I'm sorry to say this but ... it's my belief that the store wouldn't have been found at fault in what happened to you.

I'm glad you were able to transfer out of the neighborhood to some place safe.

Things were so different 50 years ago. When I was sexually abused as a child I was made to feel ashamed, as if an innocent nine year old girl ask for an awaking of her sexuality from a twenty six year old cousin. My family always made me feel like I was the bad person.
