In this excerpt from the Karamo Show, two speakers discuss the deep, lingering trauma stemming from childhood sexual abuse and subsequent foster care experiences. Speaker A recounts how the system and their mother concealed the abuse, insisting everything was fine, while Speaker B reflects on the personal pain of being molested, the lack of parental acknowledgment, and how these early wounds have shaped their identity and ongoing emotional struggles. The dialogue highlights themes of secrecy, parental denial, systemic failure, and the enduring impact of early trauma on mental health and self‑definition.

He brings things up that happened to him in foster care. If he was in a good place, why didn't they tell me that he was going through so much? They didn't tell me anything. They always made me believe he was better, he was fine, nothing was happening to him.
Because I wasn't fine. Being molested at a young age is not okay. And then I told you that. And you, like, I'm not saying you're a bad mom. I love you. It's just like, I wish you said something. Because honestly, I, besides me coming out, it led me to being put in like the system, foster care, led me into knowing that I'm here today defining my DNA because honestly, a lot of this trauma.
I always kept quiet when something was not right. They always, when I was molested, I told my mom the same thing what happened to me and she just said, "You're crazy," shut the door in my face.
You did that to me too.
