There is a family I know who has some kids of their own, and adopted several children who had been abused physically/sexually by their birth parents, and one of the girls by her foster father also.
The oldest boy is currently in jail for the same thing; he sexually abused his younger sister (one of his parents biological children), although he has had a change of heart. I wrote to him not long ago, and he couldn't write me back but his parents showed me a letter he wrote to them saying he's at peace with God knowing his sin is forgiven, and has been given the strength to resist any desire to commit the offense again.
Then I found out last week that the dad has been sexually assaulting his adopted daughter on a regular basis for at least a year (maybe more). When his wife found out he almost killed himself, and now he's in jail awaiting trial for sexual assault against a child. He was in business for himself and that's fallen apart and the family is in trouble financially in addition to the mental and spiritual wounds they have to face now.
I'm worried for the boy in jail as to what will happen when he hears about it. Its the kind of thing that could keep him bitter and angry at his dad for years to come and affect his future fatherhood and really screw a person up for life. And then the girl also, being sexually mistreated by her birth father, foster father, and adopted father. I can't even image the hurt it must cause to have had three father's and each one turn out to be just as abusive as the other. You think even if someone tried to give a girl three abusive dads, they'd screw up and accidentally give her one dad out of three who really cared for her.
Much prayer needed for this family. Thanks.
