I am so sorry that this happened to your daughter. I understand how she must be feeling. I was date raped at 15 too! It was a dear childhood friend of mine. Because I didn't tell anyone, I had to drive with him in the car to school. I had to act as if nothing was wrong. That was very difficult.
Three months after it happened, I went to a therapist and he asked if he could tell my mother (who was waiting in the car). I said yes and I was there when he told her. She started crying. It completely broke my heart, but it was so great that she wasn't angry with me. We went to the police and I gave a statement. Months later the case was dropped since we didn't have any concrete evidence.
I went to a rape specialist (therapist) and now I am all better. At 23, I still have loads of trust issues when it comes to men and I plan to go to another therapist to help deal with this.
I don't endorse violence, but I saw this guy at a sport event. He was laughing at me and telling my schoolmates what he had done. I went up to him and told him that I had gone to the police. He laughed at me. Hehe, that is when I punched him. Twice. Hard. On the nose! He started crying!!!! I haven't seen him since.
Turns out, his dad hits his mom so he has no respect for women. But he is freaking scared of me now!!!
