A woman has been convicted on a charge of facilitating the rape of her six-year-old daughter after a trial at the Central Criminal Court.
The girl's uncle was also convicted of rape.
The mother of the child was also convicted on two charges of sexual assault.
The jury could not reach agreement on two other charges of sexual assault and acquitted the woman on two further charges of sexual assault.
Not guilty verdicts on seven other charges of sexual assault were returned by direction of the trial judge earlier in the case.
The jury could not reach agreement on two other charges of rape against the uncle and returned not guilty verdicts by direction of the trial judge on three further rape charges
The guilty verdicts were reached by a 10:2 majority. The woman and her brother have been remanded in custody for sentence on 20 October.
The jury failed to agree a verdict on a charge of oral rape against another man who was a family friend.
The accused cannot be named to protect the anonymity of the complainant. All three had pleaded not guilty to all charges.
In her evidence to the court the woman, who is now in her 20s said her earliest memory was of being sexually abused by her mother when she was three years old.
She said as a young child she lived in a house with other adult family members, each of whom had issues with alcohol.
She said they drank "all the time" and violent fights would erupt.
She outlined incidents of sexual abuse in her home, in the room she shared with her mother, and while staying at a family owned holiday home.
She described how her mother got her to carry out sexual acts on her and was sexually assaulted by her mother and said she did not understand what was happening at the time.
This happened a number of times but she could not say how many times.
She said her mother stopped abusing her when she got her period at the age of 12.
She also described being raped just before her sixth birthday by her uncle in his room while her mother was present.
She said it really hurt and afterwards her mother took her back to her own room.
She said she was also orally raped by her uncle and remembered other times being raped by him while in her own bed.
The woman also described seeing her mother and her uncle have sex with each other in a bedroom while she was present.
She said her mother could be "vicious" and would often bite and punch her.
She was verbally nasty as well and would call her "a piece of s**t" and tell her to "f**k off".
She said she never told anyone what had happened to her because she had normalised it in her own mind.
"In a way it did not occur to me to speak to anyone about it. It felt normal, I know it's not normal now obviously," she said.
The witness also described being orally raped at the age of 13 by a family friend who was a regular visitor to the house.
She said the man had come into a games room while she was playing a PlayStation and had locked the door to the room and told her "your mother knows" before orally raping her.
She said she left the room afterwards and did not tell anyone.
She said she later moved out of the home and lived with family friends for a while.
Tusla had become involved with her family because there was "a lot of neglect" and the house was dirty and untidy, the roof leaked and it was cold.
She said she made a statement to gardaí but never told them about the sexual abuse because she could not cope with it, did not want to deal with it and had "pushed it away".
She did not make a complaint to gardaí until some years later when she had moved to another part of the country and began attending a rape crisis centre.

Defence barristers had told the jury there was not enough evidence to convict their clients.
Desmond Dockery representing the mother urged the jury not to conflate alcohol abuse or other issues in the house with the separate issue of sexual misconduct.
He asked if the complainant could have reliably remembered what happened when she was three years old.
He said her allegations could not be "road tested" as she could not remember details.
He said not guilty verdicts did not mean that his client was innocent or the complainant not worthy of belief but it would be one of those cases which was not capable of being proven to a standard of beyond reasonable doubt.
Senior Counsel Michael Lynn who represented the woman's uncle said she had made no allegations about sexual abuse when speaking to gardaí about another matter in 2015.
He also said her counselling notes from 2016 showed she said her uncle had not physically or sexually abused her and she was getting memories and was not sure if they were real or not.
He said it was only in 2019 when she started counselling with the Rape Crisis Centre that the beliefs about her uncle were formed.
He told the jury they could not convict someone on a feeling or a belief that something happened.
Senior Counsel Damian Colgan defending the second man said his client had described the complainant in his garda interviews as "a lady" and suggested his client "would never touch a lady".
He said the complainant had said she was 13 when assaulted by his client but had said she was 11 in her garda statements.
He said this was a glaring mistake and said the woman had been "caught out on her own evidence" even before cross-examination.
Trial judge Ms Justice Eileen Creedon had directed the jury to return not guilty verdicts on a number of the charges before it began deliberating last week.
On Thursday last she told the jury it could return majority verdicts.
The verdicts today were delivered after a total of 10 hours and 15 minutes of deliberation.
