Of COURSE it was her mother. Why else would she be able to get and marry a man 30 years older than she was, without her (or him) getting in trouble. Besides, it says so in the first line. ;-} Of course some of you might think it was her father; getting and marrying a girl that young . . . only remember the "star-struck" look he always had when looking at his young bride? He was roped in; just like the rest of the family. The power? Once you understand that, all the rest makes sense. Her mother could make anybody near her believe that whatever she did was right and normal . . . as long as SHE believed it was right and normal. The really CUTE thing is that she was a "victim" of her own power too! So, when a 42-year old man fell in love with her, and couldn't resist the pre-teen's charms when she started flirting with him, since SHE didn't see anything wrong with a man his age "playing" with her, neither did he. And (ironically) once HE was convinced, SHE convinced herself, that it was all "normal" for him to feel her up, make love to her, fuck her, and even get her pregnant, as long as he loved her. Her family all fell into the same trap; even encouraging their daughter to marry him, since she felt it was the "right" thing to do. It was all "positive feedback". While she couldn't FORCE anybody to do things they wouldn't normally do, (like some MC stories) the attitudes SHE had about what was right just naturally become the attitudes of anybody around her. So, when Grandpa "needed" a woman to take the place of his beloved wife, and Momma thought her daughter "needed" a good sex- education (like she had) from an "older man", things just fell into place. She actually convinced both herself and her husband that "nothing unusual is going on" while her subconscious was fully aware of her little girl getting screwed royally; thus making for some VERY horny scenes in THEIR bedroom. The only people even slightly immune to her "power" were her daughters; and THEY had been brought up to believe that "anything Momma does or says is right" because that was the way that everybody else acted! Even Grandpa, while he was fully aware he was screwing the lights out of his own granddaughter, didn't see anything wrong with it, because his daughter didn't; and even seemed to WANT him to fuck her, cum in her, and yes, even get her pregnant with his babies; while his daughter didn't see anything wrong with a girl that age screwing an older man, because that's what SHE had done when SHE was her daughter's age. 12 years old to her, seemed the perfect age for a girl to learn all about sex the "best" way, by doing it. And of course, the person she did it with, should be someone she loved . . . like her Father. . . the children's grandfather . . . the oldest person in the house. To HER, that was how a girl was SUPPOSED to learn about sex and babies . . . just like she did; by doing it with an older lover. Since Grandpa always DID have his "hangup" about not "cheating" on the woman he was sleeping with, Momma never had him switch to a younger lover until the older one was gone. He didn't think it was right . . . she knew it . . . so she didn't either. However, since her father never told her it was wrong to have sex with relatives (only to cheat on your spouse) she didn't see anything wrong with "asking" him to teach her little girls about sex. And, since she didn't seem to think there was anything wrong about a man having sex with his own 12-year-old granddaughter (or later daughter) then neither did he. That's also how she (and her daughters) managed to have children, and nobody at the hospital even thought there was anything unusual about a 12-year-old little girl coming in to have a baby. Momma was there (of course, just like her mother was) to watch out for her kids, and see nothing bad happened to them. Especially when something important like having a baby happened. Even at the end, she convinced herself that nothing bad had happened to any of her kids. And in a way, I guess you could say she was right. They all ended up happy, healthy, and most even ended up happily married. Except for the daughter in the story, of course. While she was still "looking" for a man like her grandfather, at the end of the story she was still staying with her son and his younger sister. Since leaving home, she had two more babies out of wedlock, and her daughter had three. Probably only three out of the five were her sons, as she shared her older lovers with her daughter, just like her daughter shared her brother with her mother. The older daughter (surprisingly) was still a virgin; but not for long, as it looked like she would be engaged before the year was out. All three family members WERE still actively looking for partners other than each other, so there was hope they might succeed. They weren't COMPLETELY trapped in an incestuous love affair . . . only "using" each other until they found something better. "So now you know the REST of the story." Hope you liked it.
