ok, when i was 10/11, and my brother was 12/13 we would "play" with each other (private areas) when my parents weren't around. sometimes, i didn't want to do it, but he kept bugging me till i let him. i did not consider this as abuse since he was only two years older than me, and if i absolutely did not want to do it, then i could have just said no. he wouldn't have forced me. and also because i kind of enjoyed it. but then i heard a speaker talk a few months ago when i was at camp, and he said that if someone older than you touched you, then that person was taking advantage of you whether you enjoyed it or not. i'm 16 now, and he's 18. now you woulda never knew it happened at all. we don't talk about it, he's fixing to go to fire school to be a fire fighter, and everythings all dandy. it's just lately i've been thinking about whether or not i was abused, taken advatage of, or if it was my own fault? can i have your opinions to sort this whole thing out in my head. thanks.
