The Unsettling Secrets Picture Perfect Families Kept Behind Closed Doors (r/AskReddit)

what EEP dark secret did you learn about the seemingly perfect family the mum remarried when her kids were quite young - anew perfect stepdad role on 10 years and the 15 year old daughter notices something in the bathroom while she's showering webcam via the stepdad that's not the darkest part though the darkest part in my humble opinion is that her mum forgave him for filming her 15 year-old daughter in the bath and on the toilet told the daughter she would always put her husband first and arranged for her daughter to go and live with her man I grew up with a girl down the street who lived with her mom and stepdad stepdad was pretty cool according to seven-year-old me nice guy come to find out he'd been raping my friend for years it had been going on so long had been so normalized to her that she thought I was doing that with my dad and our rather friend was doing it with her dad to her your father figure having X with you was just something you did I was too young to know what happened at the time it was discovered but I do remember my mum asking me if he had ever touched me and her being very concerned he might have heard me was years before I found out what actually happened when I was a kid I knew a set of twins who were friends with my older sister the twins both female were straight-a students and always dressed modestly neither girl was allowed to date and their parents earned a huge house with multiple cars and the girls never seemed to want for anything anyway a few years later the parents were busted because apparently they owned another house a few streets away less lavish and they were running a brothel out of it with girls the same age as their daughters who were around 18 at this time in both in university I just found it very ironic that they were so protective over their own daughters but were whoring out other people's daughters now a brother and sister lived together in a huge mansion and both owned amazing beautiful cars clearly very affluent one of them began dating a family friend who wasn't so well-off turns out the reason they're so rich is because their parents were associated with some Italian mafia and were brutally murdered and raped in front of them when they were children they were given a huge inheritance after this event you would never guess they look like they've had the easiest life edit since everyone's asking the mother was raped then murdered while her husband watched then the husband was murdered poor choice of syntax my bad well it is better to cry in a brand-new Mercedes than on a shirt a old bike I worked at an Amazon store the owner of the place hired this kid whose parents went to his church the day he was supposed to start the whole family shows up mom dad son they all start working the guy was too spineless to let them go so they all got hired they were pretty much bottom of the barrel workers and just kind of kept themselves aside from pleasantries we were kind of a rowdy bunch and they didn't fit in and also three of them did the work of one person my coworker started referring to the Mazda Dharma family because the father resembled Jeffrey Dahmer and they were all a little bit too idyllic and Christian then it started to get weird the son regularly called out citing stomach issues and saying certain tasks made his legs tired and things like that mr. Dahmer started having these intense fits of rage where he would go off on us for minor things miss Dharma started to become strangely attached to me and regularly bought me strange gifts like holistic headache creams a neti pot organic tea etc years later I find out that the son had AIDS the mother and the son were a little too close for that age the father eventually got caught doing some strange things and they got a divorce Miss Dharma on my last week working there started asking me about demons and things on my last day she gave me this one Anna Renville OBE that had this 30 page manifesto she written as a letter to me about how she was infested with demons and all kinds of crazy Song of Solomon type things she thought I was infested with demons too but hey I still have that neti pot my next-door neighbours husband wife and two young girls and my neighbors down the road husband wife and three young girls we're the best of friends and did everything together they went on vacations together they went out to dinner together they even bought a timeshare together my family had to move to a different state for two years and this was during the housing crash of 2008 so our house never sold so we just moved right back in well when we were cleaning up our house to move back in we found the kamasutra style book in a bathroom drawer and a mysterious bleach stain on some carpet we had told all the neighbors where the extra key was in case they wanted to store stuff temporarily or take cover during a hurricane we live in Florida or whatever since there wasn't anything of ours there to steal we just assumed some teenager couldn't find anything better to jack off to one tried to clean up his mess after a few months of being moved back in our next-door neighbors move out in the middle of the night they left in such a hurry they left their cat we come to learn that the husband of our next-door neighbors and the wife of the other neighbors were having an affair and using our house as a Rhonda Lou's induced baby monitor reminisce to keep an eye on the kids when we moved back and they had to start taking business trips and they eventually got caught the wife on the next-door neighbor's was willing to work things out but didn't want to be in the same neighborhood as that whore that was convenient as the husband down the street was basically a hillbilly Jason Momoa and was threatening to kill them in the end we got a cat which was neat he died a few years ago but was a great cat my grandfather lives in Tennessee by himself kind of out in the mountains well there is a family cemetery in his backyard of this 50 yard long hill that's covered in thick trees there's a dude in our family buried up there along with his 9 dead children and 4 dead wives who all died at pretty young ages all of the women he married died around three to five years after they got married this was back in the mid to late 1800s and I guess the guy was known to be real shady still unknown if he played a part in all the deaths or if he is just a super unlucky man I met my friend's grandparents and they are your typical kind white doily toting American grandparents they literally have the cutest old people house in the world and they're extremely friendly turns out for a time in the 60s or 70s they were in a Rex cult it's an open secret that my friends uncle is actually the child of the grandmother and the cult leader there are the ones about my family I've told before we aren't perfect but things like attempted axe murder and grandfather are pretty crazy secrets but as a kid I hung out with a dude who was part of a perfect family it seemed his mom was an Olympic rower and his dad was some super cool business exec we were good friends from like 12 to 14 or so then different school I found out his mom died of cancer like the year later was very sad then the next year it came to light the dad was actually abusing him and his two little sisters and had been maybe forever he went to jail for that it was one of those floor falling out of the world things poor guy it wasn't a seemingly perfect family but I did find out when I got older that first my great-great-grandmother was murdered and they never found her killer second I had to always wear long shirts and long pants around a particular uncle and only found out why when I was 13 and he propositioned me to have a threesome with my mother then found out that he'd spent seven and a half years in jail for aggravated assault no one in my family talks about it third my uncle's uncle molested him when he was eight and was surprised by what little boys to puke both those men still attend every single big family gathering and I don't know if no one knows or we just keep tucked up secrets but I don't go to family gatherings anymore edit the uncle from number two is not either uncle from number three uncle too was technically my mother's uncle but always said we were to just refer to him as uncle the reason it's kept secret is because my nan doesn't want to judge by her family form the outing a disgusting family secret that she was told to keep quiet about by those involved so that's why I don't go anymore because I don't have time to keep secrets for incestuous child molesters I hate that families think it's acceptable to have kids around these kinds of people and then have them cover up like they are the ones who are supposed to be ashamed in my stepfather's family his sister's son raped a five-year-old girl in a church during service got sent away until he was 18 he started showing up to family events and my mom gets all butthurt that I won't come around with my two-year-old son I have a very small family of about seven people growing up everyone would get together for events and everything seemed pretty normal and everyone seemed to get along it wasn't until I was a teenager that I noticed that everyone in my family actually hates the shut out of each other and it was just some huge contest to see who had become the better person over the years my mother and my grandmother are the only ones who talk to each other and it's probably only because they live together my grandmother and grandfather are separated and my grandmother only calls him every few months to see if he's dead or not they kept their handicapped son locked up oh well most people didn't even know he existed they made his room like a padded cell and just left him in bed all the time with a nurse coming to bathe feed and rotate him his parents didn't even talk to him or look at him often people dealt with things badly in the past I had a close friend at school whose brother had Down's but we didn't know because he was sent to home early in life and never saw him it all came out one day when one of us dropped by at the time of his annual home visit she had been forbidden to mention her brother even in front of her parents my grandparents I'd had another family on the side when he died my grandmother's name was put on his gravestone the other family chiseled it out also my oldest hunt on my mom's side isn't blood-related didn't learn that until I was 23 how is it determined who is the main family and who is the site family does it just boil down to who was there first does it matter if one family knows about the other but not the reverse I have so many questions of course our side of the family says we were the main family but that's because he was married to my grandma first not sure how the other family found out my grandma found out after rumors started spreading and she confronted him the other family was from another town this was in the sixties and grandma was an immigrant housewife so she didn't have too many options but stay with him so it's not spoke too much of grandpa died when my grandma was pregnant with my mom I have a very similar story my grandpa had a couple side families and in the end totaled 22 kids he died when he was 35 all grandpappy could slang some donkey apparently 22 kids by age 35 that's ducking insane and some insane ducking
