I am the daughter and sister living in a rather unprecedented situation: whether to call it abuse on full is hard for me, and others to come to terms with.
(This story might be hard to follow as the events are between 3 people)
For the past few years, my mother has been living with a man who at first seemed like a good man; however, as life always goes, this wasn't the case. It started small with him saying cruel things to mine and my sister's mother, but as expected, progression followed. Simple comments on our mother's cooking and appearance escalated.
From what I've gathered through listening to my mother's stories- he's always been violent, though she claims it's always been towards video games. But video games shouldn't leave a large hole in the wall or break a TV, and the saying goes that it'll be physical if they can be violent in front of you.
This year, it started getting strange towards myself, something my mother and sibling didn't inform me of...was his sexual thoughts. He began wanting to see my chest after having seen my siblings (apparently, this had occurred while my sibling was 16/17 and (fake) asleep).
He began having thoughts of our chest sizes- wanting to see, and claimed it was just wanting to see if they'll slip out of shirts (anime, I guess?)
So this required me walking past multiple times a day- usually because the kitchen is on the way.
Then it escalated to force slips out of me, sitting downstairs- as repulsive as that is.
As I expected, once we started giving in to these thoughts, they wouldn't stop. And to ensure we gave in-- he would turn our power off, typically when he was leaving for work. This resulted in plunging us into darkness for hours at a time, but not just that- our animals. The home is outrageously hot, practically constantly at 80-90 degrees all year long. To combat that, I have a window fan running at all times to keep the temperature manageable- not just for myself, as this treatment has resulted in ailment, but my animals.
Specifically, my ferret.
This escalated and resulted in me growing tired of being asked. (As at first he wanted a video, and apparently pictures were 'too blurry') In the end, I had to show myself physically in front of him, and be compared to my mother...
After this- I was told I wasn't allowed to come down at all while he was awake at home. Which, I could manage just fine, my sibling being so kind and working to bring up non-perishable foods and drinks pre-bottled upstairs ect. I had been left up since May 2025, not allowed downstairs while he was awake.
It wasnt till recently we (my mother an I) learned of an incident that moved things further into motion for my mother.. atleast saying she was gonna get money and all of us + our animals out.
My sibling had went downstairs when mother went to sleep, he's had problems about sib not going down but wont even look at them when they do.. so, the only logical thing was to engage him in conversation.. With mom gone, he seemed bolder- asking my sibling if he could touch them[Their chest] an my sibling, frankly terrified to say no- believes she had nodded.
After all, this man breaks controllers, computers- has hit and left holes in the wall. He's taken my siblings laptop and items (Both gifts of sorts), he takes our power for hours to even days at a time just because hes mad. How do you say no to that when your mother is asleep and your sibling isnt allowed down.
So- he did, coming up behind my sibling and groping.
(This is their memory but they get quite upset and the pieces arent always put together easiest for a longer story.)
Mother claims she'll get us out over and over- but nothings changed because her credits so low. She says March- Taxes, ect.. but he keeps wanting to kick my sibling out- first it was by the 26th Dec, now its by the 1st of the new year.
If me or my sibling go- our mother isnt allowed to talk with us again or even help us in any way. Not that we have anywhere to go stably.
As of right now- he has threatened to remove my sibling physically by throwing her out if shes not out by the 1st.
Thus I come here, on our behaves, trying to get some actually progress. Since as of right now, it isnt safe to go the legal route about any of our experiences, not until we're out.
So I thank any souls who offer a hand- even if the goal isnt met, it means more than plenty.
