A 32-year-old mother has made the shocking allegation that her own mother knew she was being sexually abused by her stepfather, and, instead of protecting her, she gave her birth-control pills to prevent her from becoming pregnant.
The woman, who is being identified as Anne*, said the alleged abuse began when she was just 10 years old.
“I remember she gave me the pill. I don’t remember what colour the pill was, but they were small; very, very small, and she said I should take the pill because she don’t want me to get pregnant for my stepfather,” Anne said.
