If you did not consent for your dad to touch you, then yes it is sexual abuse. It is never okay for someone to touch you against your will. Check out rainn.org

It is. for one thing, it is incest, which is illegal in the United States. Also, if it isn't consensual, it is sexual abuse.

YES any type of touching in "private" areas or anything your uncomfortable with is abuse. Talk to someone you can trust. A listener or 7cups or someone at school or home. Always know you are not alone. This is not your fault and you deserve for this to stop.

That doesn't sound good. Dad should not be touching you in a way which makes you feel abused. Please find someone safe to talk to ASAP.

If your father is touching you in an inappropriate manner please report this to a trusted adult immediately. If you would consider this touching inappropriate if you saw someone else doing it, then chances are you are right. Sexual abuse is very serious and any unwarranted sexual touching needs to be addressed right away. Please consider letting a trusted adult know if you feel that you are being sexually abused.

That's what it sounds like. Now, good touch, like hugs and friendly cheek kisses, or tickles are acceptable (if you allow it). Any other touch (especially without your consent!) from anyone is unacceptable and may be sexual abuse/assault.

When a dad touches a little girl or boy sexually (on his private area, or on her private area) yes that is abuse. Not only is it abuse, but it's called molestation. Any dad who touches his child could get in a lot of trouble with the law. I never had my dad touch me in that manner, however, I have a step sister who mother's boyfriend, used to touch her private areas.

If you don't want him to and he touches you in a sexual way this may be classed as sexual abuse, I would suggest you get in contact with a sexual abuse helpline for support

if he touches you in personal places, yes this is sexual abuse. I would consider calling the sexual abuse hotline.
