Hi I'm having a hard time figuring out if it is abuse or not. I feel it is. I have an older cousin who has downsyndrome, he's at least 10 years older than me. I would occasionally stay with my aunt and uncle (his parents) and when I would go upstairs to play he would make me touch his penis and put it in my mouth. I can sometimes smell a smell that reminds me of it and it turns my stomach. He would touch me too. His parents caught him a few times and it was just brushed under the carpet. A few years ago my mum told me my uncle (my cousins dad) abused her when she was young too. Nobody listened to her so it was also brushed under the carpet. Is it abuse? Does it count even though he has downsyndrome? I would just like some answers to make it easier to understand. Thank you x
