    Victim blaming is some fucking shit.

    My partner’s ex abused his little sister for years when they were young (when my partner found out she divorced him). His family ostracized her for making the family look bad.

    I’m so glad that you’re finally able to start healing, comrade.

        The son abused his little sister for years.

        The family of the children (including grandparents and uncles and aunts and cousins) disowned the sister for making the family look bad.

        One cousin cut the family off afterwards because of the injustice, and still maintains contact with the abused woman.

          At least a slither of a silver-lining for the poor sister that got abused. The cousin made an honourable decision; I guess that the cousin realised that if the family was of that calibre, that she’d be better off without them, and I applaud their rationale.

          Even though they both made the best decision from shitty circumstances, life will be hard for them both, without family. At least they’re now free of that vile bunch.
