I'm 18 and live 120 miles away from my mother and brothers. My mother got married when I was 8, to a man who physically, emotionally and sexually abused me. I tried to tell my mum but she just looked at my bruises and did nothing. It was happening every time she went out, but still she didnt stop going out or take me with her - just left me alone with him. 3 years later we left for a refuge, but as soon as we were rehoused she let him back and he dide exactly the same again.
Recently I have been thinking about this a lot, and am getting more and more angry. Other than this, our relationship is quite good and I don't know my dad.
Should i confront her, ask her why, get her to admit she's wrong and make myself freel better, or just leave it? Not sure abouyt risking the big confrontation and arguments..,. Please help!!
