[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Surprised by these responses and your DD’s reaction. No wonder bad guys keep getting away with sexual assaults. Hope your dd comes out of this without long term trauma.[/quote]

Just stop.  [/quote]

Stop what? Women can either collectively fight this together or rely on the next victim to start the fight. If you don’t fight things will never change. We saw that in 2020 with BLM movement. [/quote]

+1. Women need to report these men. Otherwise its the same "snitches get stitches" culture that allows men to go on assaulting women with impunity.  It sucks, but that's life. [/quote]

This is correct, and the statistics that other PPs acknowledge  prove that lack of reporting when incidents occur allow for not only the culture of assault to continue, but also allow law enforcement and communities to ignore it (heck protect it even).  [b]If someone’s home was burglarized, you would encourage them to call the police and make a report.  Even though that persons safety, security and privacy has been violated you would expect them to make a report.  And while assault is a different type of safety, security, and privacy violation, reporting it has the same purpose and power. [/b] It’s a record of a wrong doing.  It’s requesting(demanding) that justice be sought. It’s stating that as a supporter you will stand beside them no matter what.  Whether justice is achieved is a different story altogether. Assault survivors deserve to be heard, they deserve justice, and they deserve for us a society to STOP being okay with them suffering in fear and silence.

We tell kids that if they are bullied they should report it and get help.  The same applies with assault, report it and get help.

To the OP, encouraging your DD to report this IS support, just as is being sure she gets the necessary help to mentally move through and past this terrible moment in life.  This is not going to be easy for any of you, but the fact that you are here asking advice, and sending her stuff already, and talking to her, are first steps.

Please just shut up. Just shut up. NO ONE ACCUSES PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD A BREAK IN OF MAKING IT UP!!!! No one says 'Wow, I guess you learned not to go out for the day and leave your home unoccupied." or "If you hadn't made your lawn look so nice, they never would have been tempted."

Just shut up until you get some common sense.[/quote]

Comparing rape to a break in is asinine.  As Pp said, just shut up.

Mind you, I thought that way until I was raped.  Go to the police? Possibly deal with court? I can guarantee you I would have carried through with my suicidal thoughts. [/quote]
