Brother Bear 2 (2006)
IMDB rating: 6.00
Plot: The bonds of true friendship and love are powerful enough to persist through even the most extreme circumstances, but can even the strongest bond endure when a young man and a young woman are split apart by the spirits? Since being turned into a bear as punishment for his insensitivity in Brother Bear, Kenai has managed to find true happiness and a compelling sense of purpose in his new relationship with his adopted brother Koda. But when Kenai’s old friend Nita prepares for her wedding day with another man, the spirits send a sign indicating that a strong connection still exists between Kenai and Nita. The tribe Shaman suggests that the two join forces in a ritual to sever the bond between them and Nita, newly endowed with the ability to communicate with animals, seeks out Kenai in the woods. Even as the two friends resolutely journey to break the connection between them, the inescapable bond between them strengthens and threatens to disrupt not only Nita’s upcoming marriage, but the special relationship between Kenai and Koda. In the end, destiny may require that each of the three choose between his or her happiness and the happiness of the other two. Like its predecessor Brother Bear, Brother Bear 2 features lush animation; a nice blend of action, suspense, and comedy; and a powerful message. (Ages 3 – 12)

how do i forgive and forget.?
this is very hard for me to deal wit i am 14 years old and from the age of 6 to 12 i was sexually molested by my older brother who is 8 years older than me and once by a family friends son who is about 10 years oder than me. it has been 2 years since the abuse has stopped but i am WAY more emotional than when it was happening. I felt like i had no one to talk to and when i would tell my parents all they would say is call the police the next time it happens. i never did due to the fact i was thinking it would only ruin his life that he wouldn’t be able to go to college or have a normal life because of me. and now my brother is 22 and he was born with sickle cell anemia and was only discovered when he came to the country. scientist have cured 14 people and he wants them to cure him also but he needs a bone morrow transplant and blood to complete the study. in a few days i will be going to the doctor to see if our blood matches but if it does i am not sure if i am going to do it we never really talked about the abuse really and i for some reason put in so much trust into him and end up disappointed but idk how to forgive him for taking a way my childhood. I now have a problem trusting others and letting people know me because i fear i will get hurt. I really need to know how I am going o deal with this should i just do it or not and also how do i forgive him. Also my family is very religious well my mother and I atleast and we are pentecostal and i pray that god can give methe strenght to forgive him but i cant fully commit myself to doing it.
he only apologized when 1 of the last tims i pushed him off of me really hard and he went back o his room but my parents were at a funeral and i didnt tell them what appened until he had to go to the hospital for back aches wich were due from me pushing him off me then i told them and all they said was good. this is why i don have the best of reltionships with my family i feel the only sane person is my other ro he is 5 years older than me we just dont talk often due to the fact he is in college.
I wouldnt do it after that but that is me…Has he even apologized to you at all? sometimes we forgive but we dont forget.

You forgive. Period. Forgetting is something for people with senile dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Normal, healthy people do not forget. But they are willing in the name of forgiveness to "let it go" as in not bringing up a hurt repeatedly. We can learn to let go of the power that a wrong against us has. That’s what forgiveness is. Whoever coined the phrase "forgive and forget" was totally off base. Literally taken it is a ridiculous statement. Symbolically one can "forget" about ones own pain in the name of the greater good of forgiveness and peace. But do we ever REALLY FORGET an incident? No, we forget where we left our sunglasses or cell phone or the TV remote. But we never really forget someone causing us grief!

Forgiveness not require forgetting
And showing compassion and allowing some of your bone marrow to be harvested does not mean you forgive him People donate to total strangers.

It’s good that you are praying, but you need counseling,now. Your parents should have called the police the minute you said something.They are just as much to blame as your brother is if they knew and did nothing to stop it.That is horrible.You’re bother was old enough to know better.He needs help,too. But you shouldn’t worry about him Take care of yourself. Abusers always want you to be afraid of telling so they trick you into keeping quiet.Then when you told your parents they did nothing. I am so sorry for your pain. Try talking to your doctor or a school counselor and don’t worry about getting anyone else in trouble.

First of all. You can always forgive a person for what they have done. But you do not have to forget. If you forget then you have learned nothing. God has forgiven your brother, God understands what He did was wrong and that he should not do it again, he has not forgot but he has forgiven. If God can forgive your brother for what he has done, you should be able to as well. Now I know, easier said then done, but think of what would happen if something were to happen to your brother, what if he didn’t survive his sickness, that would most likely be devastating no matter what he has done. If he passes away before you can forgive him, you will never get the chance. It is your choice whether to forgive him or not, but if you choose to forgive him, you should take the initiative, since time is always running out.

I would just let him die.
That’s horrible, and the statued of limitations is not up in your case I would report the abuse to the police.

You learn that the world is a tough place and you, poor, angelic girl, have taken the worst of it. You must learn that though you can only live out your life to the fullest so that it won’t hurt. With your brother, I understand that he has hurt you and broken your fragile world, but now he is sickly. It’ll be hard, but you can help him. You can support him. You must. You must take the high road. It’ll come easily after the first hug, the first kind smile.
There is no way to forget. All you can do is not remember.
God will give you strength, my dear. He will help you through this. He loves you.
Love,
Ysabella

To forgive is to forget, that is to not hold that offense against him any longer. But I’m sure you can never forget that it happen, and that’s not what is meant by forgive and forget. But i think you should do the transplant if your blood matches but you should insist that he apologize to you for what he has done to you and you should let him know how badly he has emotionally scared you possibly for life, just lay it all on him. But you should forgive him for your own sake, because you will never be able to really get pass that bad experience and move on with your life until you do.

I’m not going to say that I understand because I’ve never had anything that tragic happen to me but, to address the first problem, I would say that there has to be someone out there to love you enough to grow close to you and not hurt you some way or another. Especially if you’re religious but even if you’re not, God loves everyone and is in everyone. The strength is just in some people stronger than others. Also, in the forgiveness action, we had this discussion in Sunday School a while back, I personally think God’s version of forgiveness is forgiving the person, not necessarily the action. You could forgive the person then not hold his actions against them. If you have God along with you, it’ll bepossible for you to love your brother, not necesarily like him, to remember it’s still quite possible for him to change.As I told someone else, please don’t value this more than it’s book value.

Hi Meme,
My love, you have had a terrible time, and there are so many complex issues here. All credit to you for even wanting to forgive and forget; what a Christian way to look at it. You may forgive your brother, and I hope you can, but I don’t think you will really ever forget. You can’t re-write history, but you can face your demons and learn to live with it.
If you bottle this up, you stand a good chance of having long term or even permanent pschological problems. You may also want boyfriends, marriage and kids. This involves having a healthy attitude to love, relationships and sex. I can’t see how your history of long-term abuse can fail to colour your judgement here.
You may be distressed at the thought, but you have to open up to someone you trust. How do you get on with your doctor? Can you take what you wrote in this question, and ask him or her? You won’t be the first, and no-one will judge you. I think you need counselling to help to come to terms with what you have been though. A doctor can arrange this. If you have a male doctor, you can ask to see a lady doctor to make things easier.
I know that prayer works; pray for strength and guidance to do what needs doing. Have you considered that your brother may go on to abuse other children – even his own? i don’t want to frighten you, but if he has been undetected for so many years, he is very likely to continue his abusive behaviour.
God bless you – please feel free to email me [janscool@yahoo.com] if it helps. I am an older lady. and can keep your confidence.
