(102,231 posts)1. Baby Boomer women have been warning these younger women for decades...
Complacency would lead to this... and it has.

I have a 60 y/o "brother" because of what today would be a statutory rape of my 14 y/o sister. We moved across the country so she could have a normal life and my parents raised him as their own where no-one knew the truth.
My family never recovered financially, but we took care of them.
