Sexual Abuse in Social Context: Clergy and other (Secular) Professionals.
#21
RE: Sexual Abuse in Social Context: Clergy and other (Secular) Professionals.
There's also the issue of not questioning the clergy. We were taught that they were always right and not to be questioned. It was very much a 'how dare you' sort of thing if you implied a nun, brother, or priest did or said something inappropriate. We will never know how many instances were not reported. Certainly the number who stand up to say 'Guess what I've been doing to your kids' is too small to count.
I'm your huckleberry.
