Have you been touched?

As he planned our future, I was planning my escape

I used to feel safe with Dad, until one night changed everything

We looked like the ideal family but the reality was so different

After getting justice I finally felt safe, but it didn’t last

He left 50p beside my bed but what he took was worth so much more

She was all I had left, but was she telling me the truth? Sarah Corbett Lynch, 18, County Clare
