Surviving After What My Grandfather Did

- Welcome back to Unfiltered Stories! Today, our guest Rachel Grant shares the story of her surviving CSA, which happened at the hands of her grandfather. Because of the pain she endured, she grew up with low self-worth.
Years after she was freed from her home, she got her master's degree in psychology. This helped her better deal with what her grandfather did and understand how it affected her life.

I Love To Hear U Talk! ....Steve.
@@SteveBlankenship-zb6sn thanks Steve!
I'm 41 years old I have never shared that my grandfather touched me inappropriately, thanks for being brave enough to share story
Thank you for sharing it here. It's your story and you get to tell it when and how you want! I hate that this happened to you, and glad to be connected and a source for inspiration as you continue your journey of healing and breaking the silence.
@@Rachelgrantcoaching Thank you X
I’m sorry that happened to you, you didn’t deserve it.
@@suptw4t Thank you 💖
@@suptw4t Thank you.X
your grandpa definitely had many other victims. they. never. stop.
Yep
It makes me wonder if the mom was touched, too. She says he was a mean man, and her momma grew up in that environment. She probably repressed, and it all flooded back when she saw her baby in her shoes on that porch. Violence begets violence, trauma begets trauma.
@@willow_jayde or a sister or cousin. He had 9 children- plenty of opportunity 😢
No, she was his only victim 😢
You guys are all so strong, I’m sure you are helping others to get away from their abusers. Thank you for sharing your stories 💚💚💚
Thank you - it's great to be able to pass on what has helped me heal and live beyond surviving 💖
Thank you for your support toward survivors 🙏🏻
@@UnfilteredStoriesYT 💖
I love her laugh and her humor . ♥️
Yah i noticed that 😅
@@artisthusnatalal3099 Awww thank you both! Humor has been a huge part of my healing :)
She's so giggley and happy despite everything ❤
“Why did you wear tank tops?” 😮😮😮
Even tho the counselor should never practice therapy, mom and dad did many of the right things. Omg the “we will pray about it” has me enraged.
Thanks for the compassion!
In his nineties….that’s why predictors need to be put down!
Just imagine the number of children…..omg I used to be a Jehovah’s Witness
Rachel I'm glad that you decided to seek help for your trauma hopefully you telling your story will help others
For sure! We all deserve to break free from the past and reclaim our lives!
I'm so glad your mom took him out of the house to protect you. ❤ You are strong.
me too!
Really glad to hear that your parents not only believed you, but protected you. I find it inspiring that you now help others. That’s wonderful ❤
Late 40's!?! Thought you were 30!
Anyway, youve been so strong. I wish you the best❤
:) --- laughter keeps me young! (and good genes). Thank you for your kind words 💖
She’s so beautiful 💖 I’m also a survivor and all these stories push me to keep thriving!
@@AbianahAlmeida Right on!
@@Rachelgrantcoachingwas gona say it's the redheaded genes, I'm 42 and people just about drop to the floor when I tell them 😅
@@alfonzo7822 Hahaha Truth!
I understand why Rachel didn't want to go to therapy and talk about what happened to when she was younger because she wasn't ready to process it
Truth!
Not just that it was the male counselor he was trying to shame her by asking why she wore so many tank tops, he was basically trying to say she teased the predator by dressing a certain way and got what she deserved. It's disgusting I've had a male counselor ask me something disgusting and I knew he was a misogynistic person and got delight out of trying to guilt trip me and retraumatize me. I only deai with female counselors that are truly understanding and really trying to help because I feel a little uncomfortable with male counselors, I don't even tell a potential partner about my trauma because some will prey on that information and see you as easy to abuse since you already been abused.
Thank you for sharing this amazing story! You clearly are an amazing woman.
Thank you so much for those kind words 💖
You’ve obviously done the work !!!!! This trauma is a part of the gift you have that I know is helping so many !!!! ❤
Thank you!
My daughter was sa as a young child by her biological father your story sounds very similar to what she is going through she's angry and can't connect with her peers.I hope she can grow into a healthy adult .
Bring her to a Reiki master, it will stop the anger immediately and take away the horrible feelings she's going through
is she in therapy?
best wishes
@@pinkpugginz not yet hopefully soon though
I'm so sorry for what your daughter went through. Wishing for you both to heal.
Im so sorry for you both😢 may Jesus Christ heal and comfort you both🙏🏾❤️
Babygirl please believe there are other victims. From his reaction when your aunt pulled up, i speculate that she might be one of his victims. He was 92 and on his way to the lower room so he say you has his last piece of trophy
I wish I had the memory gaps. The abuse is the most vivid part of my childhood unfortunately
Thank you Rachel. 😊
Thanks for watching!
It was so painful reading about Rachel's abuse by her grandfather. Especially because I recently read a book by a woman who was sex trafficked by her grandfather for 13 years, starting when she was 4 years old.
Name of book?
"The Lucky One" by Jenni S. Jensen@@lindseybraconnier9101
same thing happened to my daughter whe i found out my bf was molesting her 1st counsler she saw was a man, she came out screaming he said it was my fault!!!! she was 3-5 yrs old and 13 when i found out. never take your child to a MALE COUNSLER! after that she went w me to my wonderful counsler,who helped her heal. she is now 40 put her elf thru years of college, has a great job and shes the best mom to her now 20 yr old only child, and she is with her childhood sweetheart who is that childs dad now for 23 yrs.
I'm so glad she had your support and love!
That’s exactly what I thought of when she explained what her counselor said to her… 😢 he had an opportunity to help heal a child. He choose to feed his perversive sexual fantasies instead.
You have come so far Rachel. Just know how much I care about who you are. Now that we are both older and wiser.
Hell yeah Michael! So glad to be connected and on this journey together :)
I also had SA as a child. I did the samething block it out by believing it was a dream and that I was a bad persons for having those nasty dreams and that I was disgusting for having those thoughts.
I’m JW. I breaks my heart to hear the elders did nothing back then. That has changed over the years but it should never have been acceptable. I really hate that this damaged your relationship with God. I have experienced sexual molestation and SA. I didn’t saying anything to anyone because I had issues at home. I’m still working on myself.
W0W I'm soo sorry you went through all this abuse and grief and pain 💔 I thought grandparents support there grandchildren and teach them to cook and clean them your grandchildren about their life's growing up as kid so sad I think I would knock the hell out of grandpa I told my mom everything somebody look at me wrong I will tell my mom in a heart beat old nasty ass dogs I'm not faulting you it not your fault 😢 🙏 💔
What a horrible counselor!!! What the hell does a child wearing a tank top have to do with her abuse??
You are so strong so brave so hell of a fighter! beautiful inside and out and absolutely truly truly beyond inspiring 💜❤️🩷💙💛🩵 Thank you from the bottom my heart for sharing your story❤️💙💛🩵💚🩷💜
Thank you so much for your words of affirmation- received!
Rachel, I have lived in Skiatook,OK my whole life! It’s only about 35 or 40 mins from Skiatook. I’m 33 now
I'm so glad your parents listened!! So many don't.
Late 40s ? 🧐
You look great and despite your situations in life , you seem to still have a beautiful spirit.
Many blessings to you ❤
You are the realest!!!
Why thanks! :)
You look so young for your age. Our hair color is as stubborn as our nature. It doesn’t go away so easily
I love these videos but I can’t stand the music in the background it’s all I can focus on 😂
Wait...so some girl accused her of sleeping with her boyfriend and she essentially confirmed it by saying, "well maybe?" (15:10)
Did I hear that correctly?
Yes - they edited that a bit - but what was really true about my teen years is that I was pretty reckless when it came to sex (not uncommon for survivors of abuse), and so there was a very real possibility that she was right.
Hi. Would you mind sharing your program with me for woman? I would like to start a group too. I am in the UK and we have nothing like that available. Thanks..
The therapist asking why she wore tank tops should've gotten his license revoked. He in that moment just blamed her.
who's dad was your grand father? ...mom? or dad? just curious.
mom's.
Sicko hope he didn’t molest her mom! 😖
Oh - no way sweetheart! 6:00 It was NOT what you were doing that was bad, it's what HE was doing that was bad!
Yes - they edited that a little bit :) - I spoke in the original about how children often feel that the abuse is something "we" are doing - and that this is why shame is such a dominant feeling that has to be worked through and healed.
How do we contact her or follow her to possibly get help with a situation though the more than surviving
Girl you are not in your late 40’s! What?! You look 28-34
😃 - laughter keeps me young!
I'm from Avant, thinking bartlesville is massive lol
Haha! I hear that :)
It's sad that her parents should have her gandpa put in prison for what he did instead of kicking him out of there house make no sense
🧡
🙏🏿🙏🙏🏿🙏❤️
🖤❤️
cute kid 💗
I bet he did that to your mom
Okie in da hizous
Right on :)
I’m confused about her laughing. It wasn’t funny at all.
LOL it is 90s and still horney 😅
I am grateful to say that I am a born again Christian and have been since I was 19.......the reason I believe we have mean parents bad teachers and some of the meanest ppl who do some of the cruelest things such as abuse sometimes molest prey on children or anyone for any evil purpose!!!!!! we know that Satan is the ultimate abuser, molestor, and predator as the Bible says in 1 Peter 5:8 He goes around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour!!!!!! And it even breaks my heart that children are having to be taken to safe places! folks if you don’t know Christ as your savior then it burdens my soul to think that you are headed for a terrible place called Hell where the Bible says the fire is never quenched and the worm dies not! Folks you are not promised tomorrow! If you want to know how to be saved from this horrible reality then please by all means don’t hesitate to comment right back so I can lead you to the savior! 2 Corinthians 6:2 clearly states “now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation!” And Hebrews 3:aw15 clearly states, “Today if you hear his voice don’t harden your hearts! it is not me but the Holy Spirit that I pray reveals to you the truth of his precious gospel......John 3:16 says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes on him will not perish but have everlasting life! V 17 says then V 18 says whoever believes on the son is not condemned but whoever does not believe on the son is condemned already because he has not believed on the son whom God has sent! Also Acts 16:30-31 what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house I am not threatening anyone but just warning them what will happen if they reject this precious gift of eternal life! Christ died a horrible criminals death! He was beaten brutally mocked spit upon and endured countless hours of torture pain for all of our sins! Ppl go to hell because they reject that pardon for their sins! And Jesus is saying to them in Matthew 25:41 depart from me you cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Hell was only prepared for Satan and his angels! It is not God who threatens anyone it is the craziness of rejecting the free pardon of salvation! It’s like if you’re in court you’ve committed a crime say you murdered someone! Now if you say to that Judge hey I know I’ve done a terrible thing of murdering that person but I hear you’re a good judge and so I know you’ll be fair to me...... the judge is going to reply well yes you’re right about one thing I am a good judge and because I’m a good judge I’m going to see to it that you’re punished and that justice is served! Well then all of a sudden someone you don’t even know comes forward and says you know what I know he’s committed the crime he’s committed and he deserves to go to jail but I really don’t want to see him go to prison so I’ll just go to prison for him so he can go free! So if you accepted that offer you’d be free to leave the courtroom but if you didn’t well you’d be crazy and go to prison yourself! Well that’s exactly how it was 2,000 years ago! He is God in human flesh and he came to this earth lived a perfect sinless life and even though he knew that we had sinned and because of our sins deserved to die miserably but he said no I don’t want to see them suffer so I will go and take their punishment for them! Even though he did absolutely nothing wrong still he chose to take the punishment for our sins so we can be set free from the power bondages and consequences of our disobedience to God! Romans 5:8 says For God commends his love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us! 1 John 2:2 says he was made to be the propitiation for our sins! And not just for our sins but the sins of the whole world! 2 Corinthians 5:21 He who knew no sin became Sin for us that we would be made his righteousness! The truth is if you had to get to Heaven by your own effort then you cannot do it! Because Romans 3:10 says there is not one that does good! No Not One! Romans 3:23 says For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Romans 6:23 says For the wages of sin is death! But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord! But the good news is Romans 10:9 If we confess with our mouth and believes in our hearts that Christ died for our sins then was raised from the dead we will be saved! V 10 For it’s with the heart we believe and it’s with the mouth confession is made unto salvation! God gave us 10 commandments to follow and we’ve broken every one of them! And because God is a good God he cannot allow our disobedience to him to go unpunished! Well then like I just mentioned above his son Jesus stepped forward and said no I don’t want to see them punished so I will take their punishment for them! And also like I said he died a terrible substitute criminal’s death for us on a cross so now all we have to do is accept that payment for our sins and we can escape the terrible wrath of God that is to fall on them who do not accept this atonement that was sacrificed for our sins! Praise the lord Romans 10:13 says Whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved! And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!
So what happened she said all this technical jargon but nothing of what happened…what he touched your legs? Why is this a big deal so if your legs get touched it causes all this trauma 😏
