When I was a teen I worked as a waiter at a dirty smokehouse/bbq place.

One of the kitchen staff there would make sexual comments about me. Say things like “You’re lucky you look good because you’re so stupid.” And would ask what kind of underwear I was wearing.

I told my parents about it, and the advice they gave me was “Deal with it. You need a job.”

Within a month that kitchen staff member had started to grab me and sexually assaulted me.

I don’t talk to my parents anymore.
