I'm concerned about the ongoig risk to other children. Would it be ok to make an anonymous report to authorities?
If so, I think it may not be helpful to simply report the nipple pinhcing. Yes, that's sexual assault where you live (seems to have been established), but the concern seems to be that it was occurring in the context of other/additional abuse/sexual abuse.
Isolating the nipple pinching, when it's occurring in the context of additional abuse (sexual, neglect, verbal, etc.) IMO gives a very misleading picture of the risk to the other children, as well as what happened to you.
Isolating parts of abuse seems to be minimising what you went through. It doesn't sound like this was a case of out of control nipple pinching, and I think you're downplaying the significance of what was done to you by isolating that element. Was the nipple pinching ok? Absolutely not, and it's completely valid for you to be distressed that that happened to you. But when it's occurring in the context of additional abuse (as opposed to, say, an otherwise safe and loving home) it's much more complex.
Have you got a T or a support person you can talk to about this?
