My parents hadn't discussed possible assault in broad daylight at school.
Do you really think they could have anticipated that? From a 10 year old?

I don't remember now if your parents were ever told what happened...but I feel for them, either way. If they know I am sure they were heartsick when they found out, and if they don't, I'm sure they would be.

It's possible one of my sons was molested (I can't get him to talk about "it" whatever "it" is), and the way and place it might have happened could not have been anticipated by me or anyone. I didn't even get enough information to suspect it until 7 or 8 years after the fact. I'm heartsick about it every time I think of it, and I would have done something had I known, but I didn't. I'm sure your parents would be, too.

I'm heartsick it happened to you.
