Response to can adults be molested by kids? Short answer yes, most probably won’t agree with me, but if it helps here’s the long answer. I am a adult male who was molested by multiple family members ranging from mother to older sister aunts and uncles and cousins of both genders. While that was going on my age ranged from toddler until mid-teens. I realize it doesn’t sound comprable because you’re much older thqn that. Yes those boys may have been curious, normal for that age. But it may be that like most kids they have already been exposed to p***. Simple non judgemental reality. To your point, when you are being molested there is often a deer in headlights mental block. So off guard that this is happening that it temporarily “paralyzes” you. Even more so when faced with more than one at the same time. Some people have the instinct to react and shut it down quicker than others. But for you even more so because they were much younger and you had multiple ones doing it to you…understandably off guard and stunned.
