Well, I hate saying this, and it hurts to say it, and legally I have to be as vague as possible.

Some certain things in my family have been going on, and lets just say my step-dad and mom had to get a forced divorce. Most of what happened was done to only me, but now that the authorities are involved, it's tearing up my family terribly. My brothers and sisters no longer have a dad and they as m,y 14yr old brother put it, are 'ruined'. Now for some reason the juvenile court can get involved and are watching my mom like a hawk. And as far as we know, she can be accused of not being a suitable mom, and well, us 5 kids are liable to be taken away, and put in a foster home. I've been praying about it, but I need a lot more prayers to be strong. The hardest part is that I knew all this would happen, but yet what I did was right. Things are getting worse and worse for my family, and it hurts to see them suffer, and then it kills me on the inside to go through this. At least 2 days of every week, I have to put a fake smile on my face. Please, I just need prayers, I don't know what to do anymore.
 
Will be praying for you and your family. When I was 17 I turned my dad in for sexually abusing my sister and me. When I did that our family blew up like a bomb. It was very difficult time and still can be from time to time. My parents divorced and like you said, the hard part was knowing that all of that would probably happen when I brought the stuff to the light. I'm sorry that you are going through this and I know it's hard. I'll be praying for your whole family that you remain whole and that your family stays together. Jesus has done a lot of healing in my life and family and I know He can in yours too. Be strong in the Lord, and don't deny your feelings. Express your feelings to Him and he will heal you. Rest in Him little sister!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to give feedback, it's encouraging to see how people handle things and how it all turns out in the end. Thank you very much.
 
Angel.. You are always in my prayers.. Even more now than ever. You have my full support and I'm always here for you. You may feel that you need to be strong for your family, but you need to be even stronger for yourself. God will want that. You did what was right and I'm proud of you. I am here for your mom too and your brothers and sisters. You are a wonderful and beautiful person and I don't want you feeling bad. You didn't ruin you're family, you broke it down and now you all are piecing it back together, with each other. What you did, made you're family better, stronger, safer. <3 I love you hun, don't forget it.
 
It is tough to put on the smiley face, been there done that. Hopefully you won't have to bear that for too long and the smiles will be real. Remember that you are not at fault, you did not create the situation and probably stopped it from getting worse and spreading to others. In the Name of Jesus I pray healing and guidance over all of you, and strength. What happened to you is wrong and you're my hero for putting a stop to it.
 
Huge hugs stormchaser, :)
All you ask for your family and you also, also all needed is in my prayers in Jesus's name.
When my dad left, no one spoke of such things, one just pretented all was ok, for me that was the hardest part.
Please find someone to talk to, that you know will help you as you go through all this.
Know also, you are not alone, all here care about you and are praying for you and your family.

Hugs and God bless :)

Have a DHS visit today... Woo... I'll keep everyone updated on this thread. Thanks again for taking the time and praying for my family and I.
 
Wish you the best! :)

Keep your head high and smiling for God will always be by your side. Love to You from all Your brothers and sisters in Christ!
 
UPDATE: With the county attorney being really rude about this entire situation, things with some people arn't looking too happy. My siblings are broken hearted, me on the other hand, am not. I'm old enough understand it all. We are not in a bad position at the moment, but things can go downhill from here. Have a meeting with a social worker tonight. I don't really like them coming to my house, but it has to be done. PRAY! Nothing serious happens to my family that will hurt us beyond measure.

Good news: My aunt was in prison and came home last week. She's changed and is looking great. My older brother came home for a visit from college. It was nice seeing almost all of my family in the same room. (:
