I can't even imagine the pain and rage I would go through if I found out one of my daughters had been raped. I would hope a thread of humanity in me and the thought that only through rational reaction could I be there to help my daughter through the future troubled times would prevent me from doing something rash, but I couldn't guarantee it.
Sorry to anyone who has to go through that awful experience, either personally or with a close friend or relative. I posted a bit on a depression-centered board before coming here and befriended a woman who had been repeatedly raped. Tough stuff, let me tell you. Makes my problems seem VERY small.
