When I was little, I found a book called (I think) No More Secrets For Me, about a little girl whose stepfather molested her. I read it and came to the conclusion that all stepfathers molest their stepdaughters. Imagine my horror when I found out one of mommy's boyfriends was going to turn into a stepfather!
Even now, at age 20, I'm not terribly comfortable around my stepfather.
