My father was a pervert towards my sisters, not only saying questionable sexual-related things but also on multiple occasions having very questionable physical contact with them (mostly this past year, though they have since told us that this sort of thing had happened earlier too on infrequent occasions, including when they were very young (they are still underage)). I don't know the full details of this (I am unaware, for example, if anything happened that could be considered rape), and I was only aware of this after our mother became aware of it too, but we have cut contact with him when this came to light earlier this year; and given how deep a hole he's dug for himself financially speaking (which also escalated to a breaking point this year) in the years following my parents' separation, I don't doubt that he is having the shitty time he deserves. I guess a slightly amusing thing in retrospect (in the fucked up way that any bit of this could even attempt being amusing) is that I remember him saying many years ago that when he was younger he considered becoming a catholic priest (which I always found strange since he isn't religious, at least he wasn't in the time I've been alive).
