I'm so sorry this happened to you. You mentioned that the naivite of a child helped you not remembering this as so bad. I would like to suggest as kindly as possible you attend therapy for a while to process this out of sheer self love.

You didn't deserve this and you sure as hell don't deserve the invisible wounds that this presumably left. You deserve life and love and please love yourself and your chocolate skin. :)
