Facing a dilemma

[robvalue]

I'm late to the party here, but I want to offer my deepest sympathies KP. I've known abuse, but not on this scale. I can't imagine how horrible it must have been, and it's incredible you have fought through and grown into the wonderful man that you are.

It seems you've pretty much made your decision, and I think it's the right one. It's also very brave. It will be upsetting in the short term, but I think you would feel everlasting guilt if you didn't so this, guilt you may never get the chance to rid yourself of. Your father is very cruel for not just admitting to his crimes and forcing you to go through all this.

Thank you for sharing your story, and I hope the trial goes well. I agree with others, I think you underestimate yourself and you'll probably find you can cope with this a lot better than you predict. We're here to support you through the whole thing
