[QUOTE="keista, post: 448583, member: 11965"] Ditto what everyone else said. You did say there were other smaller incidents before the letter. My question is did she really know what sex was at 12? Just saying it or writing about it doesn't mean that she meant it in the same way an adult means it. DD1 informed me a few months ago that she raped a boy. WTH??? I managed to stay calm and asked what she meant. Turns out they were playing a game (tag) but were calling it "rapers rule" I asked her if she knew what rape was, and no she didn't. She turned pale when I explained it to her (in 10y/o terms she doesn't even know exactly what sex is yet) in my opinion it seems more as if she was looking for a relationship/"love" than actual sex - the whole boyfriend/girlfriend thing. Sexual abuse would seem to translate more into actual sexual acts and aggression than looking for a relationship. Personally, I was very promiscuous in my late teens and young adulthood. I was NEVER sexually abused. I WAS looking for 'THE ONE' but going about it in a very unhealthy manner. I do think the counselor has a bit of tunnel vision to be fixated on this issue. in my opinion she's hoping it would be easier to get through to your daughter if there was such a solid starting point, because in many ways it would be.
