I sometimes consider reporting them to the Police, but what evidence do I have now? It would be a complete waste of my time.
Well said and sorry to hear that, not an easy thing to state openly.
Actually somtimes if it comes up in conversation that I was an alter boy, people go all serious and apologise. Nothing happened, worst thing that happened when I was an alter boy was that fire incident, let's not discuss that.
Also, I remember when there was a legal avenue for members of the irish traveller community to marry at lower ages that the national age of consent, I think it was 14, been googlin for a reference but that may be changed now.
