In December my sweet baby girl disclosed being sexual abused by her day care worker. The daycare and police were useless. After a very difficult few months she told me the other day that she's not scared of him anymore (she was frightened he'd come into our home among other things). Today she fearlessly pointed him out to us (loudly) at a local bowling club where he was bussing tables. It took every last bit of our self control not to beat him into oblivion as we walked straight past him and stared him straight in the face. My husband went back in to tell the manager what sort of animal they have on their staff.
I guess I'm sharing because I wanted to encourage other parents traveling this road. Whilst her journey is not over and she is triggered often, my precious, now Miss Three, held her head high and fearlessly pointed him out, loudly and with confidence. She has a voice, she is an Overcomer and she knows, at a very tender age, that she doesn't need to fear- he does! So fuck you all the predators out there! Be afraid because we're raising a generation who know that you are the problem, not them! It took me more than 30 years to realise what had only taken her a couple of months so your days are numbered! To every predator out there, do us all a fucking favour and die! The world does not need you- you are not wanted!!
Sorry this is triggering and sorry for the swearing I'm so angry right now!

Sorry this happened to your little lady BUT thank you so much sharing this is awesome!
I hear this loud and clear!
Make lil miss as brave as she can be!
I have let my kids not be afraid of anyone, people don't like that our kids are very confidant and tell me often that they need to learn stranger danger.
This is exactly what I'm teaching them.
I was abused by both my uncle on one side of the family and my cousin on the other,
I personally I think if I wasn't such a shy quiet lil girl those monsters wouldn't have prayed on me.
I hope your two year old is 100% sure it was him and he did in fact sexually abuse her before you "name and shame" as some people have suggested on here. 2-3 years old is such a young age. I am very sorry this has happened to your daughter and family and I strongly agree we need to teach our kids to speak up and loudly! What a brave little girl you have raised.
