Twenty years ago my uncle acted very inappropriately with me on three seperate occassions (passes, cuddling for too long, fondling). As a kid I went to the other adults in the family about this and was confronted with major anger towards me and denial.
Now I have a family of my own, and I get a phone call from my mother about how my uncle and his family are here and want to see my gorgeous house and beautiful children.
My husband doesn't want to even meet the guy, let alone shadow him, making sure he's not alone in the same room with the kids, which is what we would have to do.
What should we do? Currently we're conveniently planning a trip so we don't even have to deal with this, but that seems llike running away every time they say "Boo". The guy is seventy years old now. I don't want to talk with the rest of the family again. Remember, major denial. How would you guys handle this?
