hi matt, i am a 27 year old male too. there have been incidents in my life which have been actioned by my father which are labeled as abuse. i however probably through a natural parental love have never thought of more than when it happened at the time.
looking at the bigger picture though, it has caused me to look at my father really differently, and this is a big change for a person to go through. panic attacks have come and gone but the memory remains.
