My son was brought into this by assault, and the older he gets the more he looks like the man who attacked me, and I think about giving him up for adoption because I can’t do this, but then the thought of not having my son here with me breaks me

So sorry that happened to you, but you chose to have the child. Part of that is loving him unconditionally. He isn’t your attacker, he’s his own person and needs you to be a good role model and show him how to be kind

Have you tried going to therapy to see if they can help you work through it

I know it was my choice and I know he isn’t my attacker, I will always be the best role model I can be for him, this is just something I needed to get off my chest, I love him with all my heart and more
