Daughter traumatized by uncle’s behavior
Dear Annie: Recently, our 11-year-old daughter visited her 14-year-old cousin for the weekend. When she came home, she told us that her aunt and uncle went to a neighborhood party, and she and her cousin went to bed in separate rooms. During the night, my brother-in-law came back alone and went into our daughter’s room, pulled down the covers and asked her to pull up her nightie. She refused. She said he stood in the window huffing and puffing for a while, but eventually left. She was terrified and did not have the presence of mind to yell for her cousin.
