No, I have not. But, do you want to talk about?

No, not by a senior but I imagine it must be awful and such a shock.

I'm not sure if it was sexual abuse.
My grandfather was blind, when I was in my early teens, I would kiss him on the cheek when I left visiting him.
He used to manage to touch my boobs.
I always felt very uncomfortable and eventually stopped giving him a kiss.
Was this sexual abuse?

Yea it was he hugged me so hard, and touching my breasts and feeling them. And he kissed mr w few times. I was scsref to hurt him trying to get him off and to stop. It felt so gross after and stuff

I know how you feel, invisible. I wanted to love my grand father.
I couldn't, I just felt sick.

When I was 13 an older cousin tried and it terrified me. I had anger and confidence back then I told him I'd kill him if her came near me. Then I packed my stuff and ran away from home. I went to live with my aunt she believed me. My mom sad that I was a sick liar.

Do you need to talk about it. I sort of understand. I know it still upsets me if my husband sometimes with out realizing it says the kinds of thing my cousing said. that was 30yrs ago. I was scared out of my mind.

you need to tell someone , your parents, the police, this is not right and should not be tolorated

senile dementia often manifests in this way.

I'm an adult and I don't want to get him in trouble it was just a most uncomfortable feeling that I ever had that's for sure

He deserves to get in trouble. If he gets way with it with you, then odds are that he has gotten away with it with others and will continue to act this way until somebody speaks up.

Is it better too wait to see if It happens again this happened at my work? I don't want to cause trouble. I've gone beck to work just four hours s day. What a way to start off again.

Yes, twice, but not by someone older like that. If you ever want to talk, I'm here to give you support. Hugs GB

I've never felt that uncomfortable, and know work is a kind of uncomfortable place especially if he is out walking around.

Yes, by a relative when I was young and I still working on it now because it doesn't go away. Maybe the old guy didn't know what he was doing but I'll bet you he does and because he thinks he can do anything he wants and everyone will say he isn't in his right mind. My dad plays that game with me all the time, he will tell me to go ahead and have something fixed and then when the bill comes in, he will say I didn't tell you to fix that and won't pay the bill. Dumb as a fox

Its him who has made the trouble, not you.

Are you able to avoid him or avoid being close to him?

Are you able to practice things to say if he does it - step backwards, put your hands up and push him off, tell him to back off and don't touch you? A lot depends on the situation. But you are unlikely the only one he is doing this too.

My friend is doing Aged Care and they have been trained a little in telling old folks they are not there for kissing, hugging etc its not part of their job.
