[quote=Anonymous]I've come to terms that my father sexually abused and groomed me as I was growing up. It's difficult, it's disgusting, and I still have to fully process it. I've kept him at arms length and communicate with my stepmom (his wife) via text occasionally. But I feel stuck when it comes to navigating other family relationships. I love my grandmother, his mother, and my aunts, uncles, and cousins on his side. My grandmother is organizing a family reunion next summer, which I really want to attend, but (a) I freak out about having my daughter near my dad, and (b) I feel very uncomfortable being around my dad myself. To make matters worse, my dad lives in the same neighborhood as my grandmother so I can't visit her without having him around. My grandmother is getting old (approaching 90) and I'm not sure there will be more family reunions after this. I want to see my family but NOT my dad. How do I handle this? What should I do?[/quote]
