What The Daughter Of A Child Molester Has to Say About Her Father
Carlos Eduardo Tello was featured on People You’ll See In Hell during the month of March.
Like most people, Carlos Tello had relatives. Those relatives were affected not only by the attention that was drawn to the well-publicized demise of Carlos Tello but were also affected by the actions taken by Carlos Eduardo Tello which led to his conviction.
We received a letter from someone claiming to be one of Carlos Eduardo Tello’s relatives. They, in fact, claimed to be his daughter, Elizabeth Tello. Here is a copy of the text which she sent us:
Hello,
My name is Elizabeth Tello. YEs, Tello, like Carlos Eduardo Tello. I would like
to actually write something for your website about my father. I am
not one of those i think he shouldnt go
to hell. I just wanted to know if you would like to interview me or let me
write a article about what happend and actually details.thank you
We here at People You’ll See In Hell often get crank e-mails from people who are not who they claim to be. This is to be expected, as many of the people who find our little corner of the Internet are rather upset with what they find written about their loved ones. So we sent this response to the e-mail address that we received that message from:
Sure. Write something up.
And the text below is that person’s response.
Carlos Eduardo Tello
The Truth Behind the StoryMy dad, Eddie Tello. as people call him WAS a child molestor.
Yes, My father was the one who jumped off the 9th floor.
What do i say about my dad you may want to ask. Yes, He molested My sister and I. Yes. he did it. Don’t think he didn’t. Him jumping off is only proving that he did touch me and my sister. I will say i have been going through a lot these past 3 years. It had taken 3 years to get into court and finally get through this.
What is a child molestor like to live with? Pretty wierd i will have to say.
My mother never noticed it and neither did any of his friends. Until now, I have not talked publicly about my father. I will tell you, yes the rumors are true that i did try to comit sucided. I have gotten over that stage after seeing what my father did. Sucided is a selfish way to go end of story. That is one thing my fathers death helped me with. That Sucided is the chickening out of life card. Now you must wonder how old am i to be writing this, since my sisters molestation was a long time ago. I am
16. Yes, 16.Having a dad is great
having a dad touch you is complicated
Having a dad die. That just feels like a knife through your heart.
Thank you for reading
Please if you have any questions please email me.

I couldn’t imagine how hard it was to have a father be the one to do that. I was molested as a child as well, but it was someone that I could easily hate. I’m happy that you’re not going for suicide, life will get better I promise you! You do learn to hide the scars to the point where it becomes second nature and lead a very normal life. Embrace life and spread all of the love and goodness that you can because the world is sadly lacking in it!
I kept reading this post again and again.
I couldn’t find the words to say. Thanks Nissa for having the courage. Now I realize what to say.
“Having a dad is great”
When I read that part, I cried.
Elizabeth, I wish I could give you a nurturing dad; a dad that will guide you and protect you. But I can’t…
Just know that most of us here will fight aggressively to take down the bad guys.
Most of us can feel your pain.
If teh letter is true and Elizabeth really is who she claims, my heart goes out to your sister and you. I only hope someday this will be less then a bad memory for you and you can go on. You have learned more about the bad side of life at such a young age then many of us ever will, and it seems to have changed you for the better.
The truth of the matter, as earlier stated, is that guys like this are demons dressed like deacons. It took an awful lot for that young lady to type what she did. I’m sure many people in her family disdain her for this. My own experiences, both personally and professionally, have made me a haunted man for the rest of my life. I can’t deal with the sort of degredation as well as she can. To Srta. Tello: your story is of value to people who are going through what you apparently went through. You need to talk to somebody, preferably not on the internet, to make sense of this…if, indeed, there is sense to be made. You cannot choose who you are related to. May God, whatever or whomever you conceive God to be, be with you dearheart.
This is Elizabeth Tello.
Thank you for your comments. Yes, Charles
it was hard for me to type and my family
really strongly discouraged me to write
yet i needed to talk about my father. Let all
of you know the truth. As their was a lot of
comments on my dads site on here that he was
a good man and he didn’t do it. Yes he did it. I went
through it. He was a good man when he wanted to be but that rarely happened. To his friends, im sorry that you really didnt know him. IN a sense thats a good thing because you would’ve been more hurt by it. When i tell people i was his daughter, they tell me im sorry but the thing is i want people to see that im stronger than my father. I’m someone different who came out of everything strong. I just wish
that i had a better dad.
Elizabeth Tello
Thank you for writing back Elizabeth. I’m sorry the things you had to say on this website have alienated you from your family. Unfortunately, I can’t say it is going to get any better. Families (especially those dogmatically clinging to what they perceive as Judeo Christian ethics) tend to push out those that are upsetting the herd. Next step? They are going to start treating you like your crazy…or whiny…or like you should just get over it. I am going to encourage you to continue to adhere to decency and justice. Letting the world know that your father’s suicide was not the product of some wrongful prosecution, but of his own shame and guilt, is necessary. Society has never looked upon familial abuse with much seriousness. A man who trolls the park and molests a 6 year old is an animal that needs to be locked up…but a man that molests his own daughter is sick and needs help for some reason. Either that, or it is a “family problem” and needs to be dealt with on that level. As a result, your father was able to hone his skills for molestation, manipulation and deception by practicing, probably for years, on you and your sister. I am so sorry Elizabeth…and on a level I care not to divulge, I understand completely.
I gather that you are an adult…so you have probably already dealt with this on a personal level…but I think you have probably never talked about this before with anybody that would listen. What I would suggest is to use your experiences just the way you said you would: to propel you into your future as a stronger person. The first step in that is realizing one thing…as corny as it sounds…you are not your father sweetheart. There is not a thing in this world that you have to be ashamed of.
I wish you had a better dad too.
Thank you charles.
Actually i am only 16. Yes, 16. Some
say i don’t talk like a sixteen year old
yet I’ve been through enough. I actually
am going to a theripist to talk about my
personal issues with my father and all.
About my family i will say this,
My family can think what they want
and think they can understand what I’m going
through but they don’t. I have my own mind and
i don’t mind sharing. I want people to know the truth
thats just who i am. And I’m not ashamed of what i have to go through to make that point
I’m glad for you. Keep progressing forward…you have such a bright future ahead of you…keep looking at that.
God Bless You my friend.
Having a dad that acts like a dad is what would be great.
Having a dad that abuses you, or himself and devours himself in alcohol and drugs isn’t ok. Even the alcohol and drugs without the abuse doesn’t necesarily mean “having a dad is great”.
Life is about trials, and trails and depending on those trials you will be put onto trails and they all have forks in the road.
Thank you all for your support.
This is Elizabeth
and i would like to say things are so different since
the death of my father.
I dont not live with my mother since she does not
get along with me and i personally feel like she blames
me for his death any way thank you all for your comments
The daughter of carlos eduardo tello
i miss you daddy but you hurt me to much
for me to care anymore
Where ever you think your dad is I’ll send him a Turtle.
Good luck to you and God bless…
Eddie was an innocent man he never molested anybody
So yer saying his daughter is lying? Got proof? I hope you have more than “I knew the guy” bullshit. Were you with hin 24/7? Did you go to the shitter with him everytime he went? Did you spend every second of every day with him?
I believe Elizabeth. I believe she never wanted to hurt anyone. I believe she is very brave to come out and speak about her father. I only wish I had the guts to do so.
This is Elizabeth,
Hello everyone,
LIfe has been even more challenging i should say.
Well Remona, were you there that night when
he touched me?
Were you there when he told me he adopted me
for only molesting me?
I thought so….
If you are who i think you are, Which for the people reading this is a lady who works at a Honda Dealership and was just a person who would talk to him for 2 min while waiting for his car.
Also Readers i would like to share that Ramona actually had said to me 2 days after my father had died that she was sorry for my dads death but it was so long that it really didnt matter?!
Didnt matter?! So i would like to know if a Man touched you and someone telling you it didnt matter how would you feel?!
Today is Fathers day and i deal with a death while you tell me that He did nothing?!
HE was guilty. I have a Letter from him that was recovered from the scene of the death. So please dont even go there. I have been through more shit than you so please you dont even know him!
Thank you Mulch.
Have a good day folks.
Dear Elizabeth
I am so sorry to hear what you went through with your dad. I just found out about his death from your grandmother. I had been keeping your dad and your family in prayer for many years. I knew something tragic had happen to your family (you). Unfortunately your dad could never bring himself to discuss it with me. The few times I did see him in the last couple of years I could see he was deeply sadden.
I knew your dad very very well when we were younger. The man I knew was a good honorable man who long for a family to love a care for. I wish you could have know him then. Its difficult to imagine he would ever even do something so horrible.
Please ask God to reveal Himself to you, He is the great Healer. Read your Bible and Pray. Listen for God to speak to your heart. I will continue to pray for you. If you would like to speak with me personally your grandmother has my phone number.
Please pray for your grandmother.
Jesus does love you, and He will get you through this difficult time
Hi Everyone,
It is Elizabeth and i would like to say
Life here is ok. My Grandmother well lets just
say im ok. I will tell everyone that i will actually be
having a normal summer. Hopefully I will get over
My fathers death soon. Its hard enough losing a father
and now i might be losing a Aunt to Cancer.
I’ll be praying for you and your aunt.
Elizabeth, I will be praying for your family and you regarding your Aunt illness. I know the pain you are experiencing. If you would like to talk, I can call you. I could get your phone number from your grandmother. But only if you want me to.
May God Comfort you and please know you can have hope in God. He will get you through this difficult time.
Please Please dont give me that savy story he didnt do anything he adopted you to be his daughter
LOL Wouldn’t that be MORE of a reason why he did do it?
Can you say “ulterior motive”?
Its Elizabeth everyone,
I would like to say that i am actually looking for a place to stay because of my mother
wanting to kick me out.
So life is i guess ok.
Ramona you dont know my father
You only talked to him at the Honda
dealership so please dont even go
there.
Yes he did adopt me. YOur point.
Elizabeth,
Please get some help, sweetheart. Some real live serious help from people who know what they are doing.
Please talk to somebody – a counselor at school, or your CPCS rep. ASK for help.
I am a grown woman, but I remember being a mixed up teenager and I thought I was so grown. I blew off everyone who tried to help me, but looking back, I would have saved myself a LOT of pain if I had accepted the help that people wanted to give me.
Your mother sounds like she sucks as a mom. Your dad sucked as a dad. It sounds like there is a lot of unhappy shit swirling around you right now.
You are strong and brave – as evidenced by the things you have done. Don’t stop being strong and brave and SMART now. Please – go get some help. I PROMISE you, you will be glad you did!
What I mean is that he adopted you to be his daughter not to abuse of you
Can somebody kill this bitch Ramona? Seriously, why dont you shut your mouth you BITCH….. You obviously dont know the truth . You are a disgusting human being who deserves to be raped and molested yourself.
Dear Elizabeth Tello,(I am sure the admins have verified it is who she says she is)
You are simply amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yourstory is sad but uplifting, because of the fact that besides extreme adversity, you are still with us. Hold this within your heart, You have gone through hell and back, and yet you still remain. Hold onto this, because personally speaking, it will get you through alot. NO ONE will ever be able to take that from you, and as long as you hold true to yourself, I believe you will go far!
So in closing I will end you a traditional irish thank you/goodbye….Go raibh maith agat sa romhat!! A hundred thousand welcomes home to you!!
Ramona i say this with ALL disrespect…go fuck yourself with a moldy cheesewheel, you asinine cumsickle. I will take the victims word over some non-involved douche bag any day. I truly, truly, hope you get cancer, numbnuts!!!
Hello everyone,
Elizabeth here. Still looking for a place. My Aunt has passed away yesterday of Cancer. I must say it is hard to sit here and watch people i love die. Hopefully for the most part i get a place soon or i will be in Foster care. I will say that i have not gotten any counsling because i am saving money to get a place and now school hasnt started as you can see i am only 16 years old and getting ready to be on my own at such a early age. I love that everyone is supportive and God be with you all. Thank you so Much i will be back to check your comments.
Love
Elizabeth
I am so sorry for your loss. It is really painful to lose people you care about, even the ones who were not the greatest people.
I am going to nag you again – go talk to someone please! I guarantee you that there are counselors who can help you, even though you may not realize that you need help. Not just with the emotional stuff, but with the practical stuff too – like finances, places to live, support – all of that.
The things that you have been through so far in your life are enough to make most adults stressed out enough for a heart attack. You need to lighten up your stress before it begins to hurt you. PLEASE.
Keep the faith, Honey. And call someone RIGHT NOW!
Dear Mazzi,
Thank you for your condolences. Yes i must say that even though my father wasnt the most greatest thing about in my life i must say i miss having a dad. Someone to be there for me.
I have also just found out tonight that my Grandmother is dieing of cancer. (Mother of Carlos Eduardo Tello)
I am thinking of talking to a councler again. I have been to therpy for 3 years and may start up again but i need to find a place first before anything is started again.
I hope things are well with everyone else. I hope your day has been well. I will come back and check comments later. Thank you for commenting it means the world to me please dont stop.
Elizabeth
=]
Babe i hope your ok. Im 20 and your just 16, i cant imagine how hard things are for you. But im sure your a strong young woman who will get throw this!
Would you prefer to live on your own or in foster care? I don’t think you should live by yourself, it may be lonely. Are you able to live with a friend? May God bless you.
Hey it is Elizabeth
Some bad news all
My Mom and i havent worked out are
problems so I am up for Adoption again.
The thing is about my life i know
to never get comfertable with happy things
because it will always change in a second.
I hope you are all well.
Thanks for the comments.
Elizabeth
Hey, too bad it didn’t work out with mum. But please be receptive. Don’t be bitter about it. This could be a positive change. It could be a positive step forward with a new family. Help them help you! Keep your guards up but remain receptive to change.
Sincerely,
Uncle Turtle
Hey kid, sorry to hear about the bad news. Sometimes life just plain sucks, doesn’t it? You sound like a tough girl, a real survivor, so I don’t have to tell you to hang in there and all that happy horse doody, but I will tel you something that got me through the darkest days of my 50 years. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God’s world by mistake. There’s a plan for all of us….I used to think that was total bullshit, and there were times I wanted to give up but didn’t because I knew there were other people I trusted who believed it was true. They used to tell me if I couldn’t believe myself, then believe that they believed. I got by on that for a long time. I look back now, many years later, and see how right they were. I’ve become the father I always wanted to be, and I’m sure my kids are better off for me being in their lives.
So anyways, you can tell by the comments here that there a lot of people out there who genuinely care about you. Something about your story touches people’s hearts, and how cool is that? You have friends all over now, and if you’re jammed up, you know you can call on us for love and support. So take care, and keep in touch.
…. is this a diary? I’m doubting authenticity here or both two people who “knew” Tello. Same person. Seems to coincidental.
Oh, you must be new here? Actually it’s a random bot that occasionally plants text to elicit a response. It’s been strategically placed here so that we can respond to it and feel better about ourselves. After my Uncle Turtle statement above, I felt better about my perspective on life. I called my grandmother and went to her house to plant dandelions. Life is good.
Your supposed to plant milk weed and a cotton wood tree Turtle… Dang it, now we’re going to have to plant thousands of those things to make the whole street yellow….
Thank you. You know we have no time for losers. I’m glad it came to an end.
Your saracasm is dry.
Hi Randi, this is my friend Jack Shit and you don’t know him. Why, well…
I’ll return the favor and say it’s spelled “sarcasm”.
Thanks Turtle. You’re so smart.
Well, I agree.
Isnt it nice how some people are so full of compliments. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
i got to sat it uncle turtle, I Love You!
Thanks Turtle. You’re so smart. But not smart enough to realize that was a typo.
You are all fucking ridiculous on this site. Losers. Jacking off to people who murder.
I’m sorry. I hope you stay awhile. I don’t want to be smart…that’s where you’re wrong. I want bad people to suffer. I want them to die. I want to hear them die. I want to see them die. I want to smell their death. I hope you can understand.
No jacking off here because that leaves evidence.
If you think we are all so ridiculous, take a look at the name your using…Randi Nicole!!! As discussed in previous posts, that you would have missed, this is not a sex blog…
Losers? I resemble that remark….
Hey guys, Elizabeth can read this. How about a little respect for her? Please.
Very true. Show some respect. If you feel the need to be a troll there are more than enough places on the net.
Sorry..i have to learn to behave better:(
Aw Amy, if you did that, well, it just wouldn’t be you. Now me, that’s a work in progress…..
So true. When im good im very, very good. 0:) But when im bad Im better;)
Hey guys its Elizabeth
wow the comments are incouraging thank you.Hope you are all well. School is getting at least all my attention
to not focus on my Family and the adoption.
And please lets all be nice here.
Good to hear you are concentrating on school.
You know i havent chatted to you before, but i have read all your posts. I understand how you feel about your dad. My dad was physically abusive to me, and although i dont talk to him or see him ( its been about 12 years) i do love him. I cant explain why. I think maybe its not so much that i love and miss him, but i definately miss having a proper dad. It is indeed a strange feeling.
As for you previous comment about not getting too comfortabl with happy things, because you feel they will be taken away; its scary when the time comes to trust again. I know i got into the habit of pushing people away. I wanted to get in first before they had the chance to hurt me. But i missed out on a lot of good friendships. Give yourself time darl, and continue with your councelling. Eventually things will get better. The memories are always there, but i know i have reached a point where when i talk about it or think about it, its almost as if it happened to another person, and i am on the outside looking in.
You sound like such a strong young lady and i have no doubt that you will go on to have a happy life. It wont happen today…but eventually the pain will fade. I wish you all the best in life Elizabeth. You are a survivor.
Elizabeth,
First, on behalf of all fathers in the world, please accept my apologies for your father did to you young ladies. I’ll not dwell any further on that part, for the others have said it much better than I ever could.
I will say this though, a friend once told me character is not built by adversity, rather it is shown by adversity. You, Elizabeth, have shown a character far beyond that which we all see on a regular basis in our lives, and we are adults.
Often people say they do the things they do because their parents did it that way. Recently I noted someone on here stated “I learned how not to be a parent…” They were talking about how their parents abused them and in the end became a much better parent by learning what not to do.
You have not only learned what not to do, but you have reached far within you and shown all of us what you are capable of. I’m not sure how you are finding the peace that you have, but please do not ever let it go. It is the very thing so many others like you are searching for. Please continue to be a beacon of hope to them.
TDZ
Hello everyone
I am here once again to thank you all for
your comments. I look in everyday and thank
God for people like you. Thank you TDZ i take
those words to heart. I wish i could have a dad
with me as i am in highschool year and only a Junior and about to be a Senior next year. I have been
having some trouble with coping with what my dad
did by dying and trouble going into tall buildings. I just cant understand how someone can jump to
there death. I mean no one will answer my questions
at home or anything i think they are too scared to hurt my feelings yet i am interested. When i grow up i want to be a High School counsler. Please keep praying for me and all. Thank you all for being here for me it truly means a lot.
Elizabeth
Your questions are normal darl. I wonder often how anyone can take their own life, no matter how they go about doing it.
Its a diffulct thing to get your head around.
As for School etc..its good to see that you have some goals to work towards. Im currently working as a mentor for troubled children at my kids Primary School. While it can be challenging at times, it is truely rewarding. It makes me feel as if i am making a difference in the world…even if its only a small difference.
Someone pointed out to me the other day that we all make a difference every day. A smile for a stranger can lighten their day. Saying hello to someone can make them feel noticed.
You made a difference in my day today. It was so good to read your post. Keep on keeping on darl.:)
Hello Elizabeth
It has been awhile since I’ve written. I have been praying for you and your family. Please accept my most sincere condolences on the loss of your Aunt. I pray you keep your eyes on God, He will get you through these difficult times of grief. I didn’t know your grandmother has cancer. I called her today and I will be taking her to lunch this Friday.
Please, I hope you can ignore the many negative comments that have been made by so many people.
Jesus loves you, He will be with you if you continue to keep your eyes on Him. If you have not spoken to a counselor. Go to your church for counsel.
It is good that you are keeping busy with school. Try to get involved with young people (high school ministry) your age. I know it can be difficult. I will pray you find good christian friends.
Love in Him
Cindy
Hi Elizabeth, Its good seeing you post here. Though our situations are different, I was molested as a child and I have some understanding of what you are going trough. Even though I am a grown man now.
I don’t mean to start an argument with Cindy , but most churches are not equipped to deal with the things you are going through. There training is minimal at best. The bible is not going to heal the pain inside you. Its not a magic eraser. I am not saying for you to not go to church , only to find a trained professional. Who can help you heal in a good way.
Talk to your school counselor for referrals and information. Or you can call your local YWCA , who will help you find the right people to talk to. You have nothing to be ashamed of , your thoughts are normal for what has happened in your life. Do not keep it locked inside you.
I personally found strength in a group therapy of like minded people who helped me to understand I wasn’t alone But what ever works best for you is what’s best for you. There are lots of free options available to you and you don’t have to go through this alone.
I agree with Taz in one respect; Churches are not well equiped to deal with you specific needs. On the other hand i feel that my life has been changed for the better since i turned to God for comfort.
The poele in my congregation are fantastic and they have supported me and comforted me when i needed it most. They laugh with me when i am happy and cry with me when i am sad.
You can find some really great friends at Church. And we can never have enough true friends.
Id say, find a balance of both professional councelling and a great suppost network. Church is a good a place as any to find that support network.
Best of luck with everything.
Whenever i read your posts im filled with pride at what a tough young lady you are to have come through so much and still be such a positive, sweet person.
Yes , churches are great places to go and meet new friends your own age. There great places to learn more about God and Jesus. (If you find one that teaches about love and caring, like Amy goes to.)
Not all churches are the same, find one that makes you happy , not sad. There a good place to network and help with your healing process, just like school can be. But they are not the only tool you should use to answer the questions and fealings you have. A profesional will not judge you and keep what you say confidentional.
Hi Elizabeth.
I found this site by accident and after reading your posts, felt I had to respond.
I lost my father at the beginning of the year and was the same age as you. I’m 17 now and have been in therapy for the last few months. My story is no way near as tragic as yours but my dad wasn’t always around, he was in and out of prison. And I just wanted to let you know, as far as losing a father is concerned, I understand. I have the same sorrow of knowing what it’s like to not have a dad anymore and knowing for the rest of my life I never will. And to people who say you’re just looking for attention, posting a ‘diary’ or whatever, I think what you’re doing is healthy. It’s the little comments that can make your day. Some empathy goes a long, long way in situations like this and don’t ever be ashamed to talk about what you’ve been through. I know from my experience that sometimes you just NEED to get it out and say something. Sometimes the family might be uncomfortable and if they can’t talk about it, you come here and say whatever you need to say and there’ll always be some one to support you.
From reading your comments it looks like you’re going through a shit time but the only advice from me that would be worth anything are two things: God. And time. The two greatest healers in the world. I hope you grow up to be strong and my love goes out to you honey.
WOW! I read that story about Tello,and I have to admit unfortunatley after I read thru the debate that raged on in the comments I had my doubts. It’s rare that we ever hear from the victims and, call me gullible, but I believe this girl. I hope she seeks the help she needs and is able to put this horrible experience behind her.
Hello everyone
its Elizabeth. I hope everything is well with everyone.
It has been a hard year and every time I am online
i come here and read all your comments. Thank you all
for standing with me and helping me cope with my
fathers death. It is soon to be a year after his death.
Gosh March 4 is going to be a hard day. I have still
been looking for a home to go to . Yet the
good thing is i have found an amazing boyfriend to
help me cope with everything. He has treated me with
the upmost respect and helped me when i am down.
I wanted to say thank you and keep commenting.
-Elizabeth
elizabeth- i’m glad you found someone you can trust and depend on, and i hope everything works out well for you in the future. keep your head up and have a happy new year.
This girl has a myspace its
MySpace address removed to protect Elizabeth’s privacy (If it really is her MySpace)
Sorry pal, but we’ve sort of adopted Elizabeth here at PYSIH, and we’re very protective of her. As long as I’m Editor here, unnecessary invasions of her privacy will never happen.

Editor, PYSIH
Aww.. that’s why I like it here:) *standing ovation for Max*!
I agree with Lena… Yay Max!
Good news guy. Elizabeth Tello contacted us by E-Mail today to update us on how things are going. Here’s her letter:
Just thought I should share that with everyone.
Elizabeth,
I am also a daughter of a child molester. I hate and love my father. I would tell you I know how you feel, but I don’t. It is different for every person. I am so sorry you lived though that. I pray everyday that my father will never get out of prison to meet my children.
I am sorry but something about that letter just doesnt ring true. I have seen many letters from real victims and they are longer and more detailed, you know shit like a little more history of the family, things like that.
So I think this letter is a load of shit.
You could be right – there no way to know 100%, but we’re convinced this person is who she says she is. She’s contacted us on a regular basis over the last couple of years to let us know how she’s doing, and other family have confirmed it’s her by their comments. Also, her IP comes from the correct town. It would have to have been a pretty elaborate scam just to fool us – and then to never let us know we’ve been had?
Hello
Its Elizabeth again. I have read all these comments again and again and i just wanted to thank you for being their for me.
Well Bill Barker you can believe me or not. It is up to you. Im not going to yell at you for not believing in me. I chose not to put to much detail because
1. My family was reading as well
2. Many people i know read this site
3. Its kinda personal.
I mean why would i go into detail about things my father has done. It already hurts to deal with them day to day. Yet as i said im not mad.
To the others i want to say hello. My final Senior Year of High School has began and it has been the best year. My grades are great and My life has just been awesome. I have been debating on writing my own book about my father and how it has effected my life in so many ways. Will Update here once in a while. I will say this is one of my favorite sites for the great ADMIN. and the people who comment on my pages to stick up for me. Thank you very much.

Elizabeth,
I think writing your own book is a great idea. Consider how “A Child Called It” by Dave Pelzer has affected and helped so many people all over the world. I live in South Africa, and it’s one of the most requested books we have down here. That tells me all kinds of people are affected by lives such as yours, and need comfort and understanding.
Go for it.
Congratulations on your strength, focus, and determination.
Hello Elizabeth,
Just wanted you to know I am still praying for you.
I remember the first time I ever saw you. Your daddy was holding you in his arms. You were about two or three. It was a Sunday morning at church, you were being dedicated to Jesus by your parents. Your daddy was so happy, he loved you so much. I know he truly wanted to be a good father to you. When we were in college, we would talk about having a family together. I knew your dad better than anyone back then. I am sorry you never had the chance to know that man. and I am sadden for what you have experienced in your young life.
I do have my own family now (a loving husband and four sons). But I do think about your dad and I use to pray he could find the happiness I found.
My heart is grieved for your loss. If you were my daughter, things would definitely have been different for you. I wish other people were not reading this. I wish we could talk. I am sorry for getting to personal.
You are not forgotten, and I pray for your future to be blessed by God.
Love in Jesus,
Cindy
idk if this is the same thing or not
but anyway
i have a dad that has never been there for me. I’m 20 I had to go to myspace to find my dad, well i found him he doesn’t have no pics he deleted them all he has a new myspace and a new girlfriend or fiance wich has a daughter and she looks young. i don’t want her around him or him around her.

I told my step mom about my real dad, but what if she doesn’t listen and does let him hangout with my sister that i don’t even know. I’m sceared
Hello Everyone.
Its Elizabeth
I know many people might not read this any more yet i
come by and check. In a way this is my way of remembering who i was so long ago. I’ve grown up a lot since the last time i wrote.
I’ve Learned that my family has been a great support and that
a lot has made me need to grow up.
I want to thank everyone who wrote in and everyone
who works on this site.
Anyway Thank You again.
Elizabeth <3
You are a very strong and brave woman to come here and post. Thank you for that.
I wish you only the very best out of life. God knows you have seen the worst.
My words exactly.
And to Elizabeth, I’m not a big believer in this whole “Jesus loves you”-thing (though I do fully accept that, for some, it not only works but fills a void), however, I do believe that everything happens for a reason, that everything has a meaning. What that meaning is we may never understand. But who says we have to?
To go through all that shit and still not lose sight of life? Or lose hope? That’s simply amazing, and I admire your strength. I really hope the road you’re travelling will be a lot less bumpy wherever you decide to go.
Hello Everyone,
Its Elizabeth
So much has changed since i last wrote.
Im in College and have now grown up since that
16 year old girl who wrote here from the beginning.
I come here often to re read my story and remember
how things were so i can appreciate things now.
I would actually like to announce that i haven chosen as a career to be a councilor for high school kids. Since i have gone through so much i feel like i can help others as well.
My family is great and have still supported me.
Today is the anniversary of my dads death…Yet today i see it as my first day of living who i was supposed to be.
Things changed my life since My sister and My Dad and Mom had the fight and thats when Everything came out that my dad molested my sister.
I would like to say that im very happy with this website ADMIN. and i feel like this is such a great place to write. Even the People who thought it wasn’t real i don’t blame you, you have a right to your own opinion.
I hope everyone who reads this is well and thank you for being such a great support system to me when i needed it.

Elizabeth! Wonderful to hear from you again, and that you’re doing so well! The human spirit has powerful self-healing capabilities. Your chosen career will continue to help you as well. Thank you for giving back like that. Kids seem to need more understanding now than they used to.
Good luck in your future, Elizabeth. And thanks so much for dropping by again!
Elizabeth, I have read all the posts, and I have to say how much your positive outlook inspires me. Thanks for your courage, you’ve helped me so much, and I wish you the best. Take care.
Elizabeth… I’ve been reading your responses today. You are a remarkable young woman, and I hope you make a life with someone who loves and cherishes you. Keep doing your amazing thing.
I don’t know if I believe in God or not, but I hope that life/God gives you much joy and beauty. *YOU* deserve it.
Hello Elizabeth
I still do keep you in my prayers. I would really like to meet with you some day. Mostly just to see the young lady you have grown to be and to encourage you . . . .
I see your grandma often. We have coffee, and sometimes a small meal together. She does miss you. It would be so nice if you could call her every now and then.
If you would like to talk. Your grandma could give you my phone number. I could get your phone number from her but I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.
May the LORD bless you and may you seek Him (God) with your whole heart.
Hope to hear from you.
Cindy

Thank you again so much for supporting me when i was younger reaching out to all of you on this site. I will never forget it. I will still be coming back to this site to post every now and again so if you have any questions or comments i will answer.
Love you all.
