You compared normal non-sexual touching to sexual molestation of children and then suggested that the sexual molestation isn't really that bad, not to mention saying that trauma from sexual molestation is externally driven, instead of driven from the molestation itself.Family member often engage in various forms of physical contact. Parents and older children bathe and perform hygienic wiping of the genitals of young children. They also wrestle, kick, slap, push, spank, cuddle and kiss out of play, affection and anger. So with all of this touching going on between family members, don’t you think how it’s perceived has a significant impact on its potential for trauma? From the interviews in the police report, the three girls who were aware of the touching didn’t understand the nature of it at the time, and two of the girls were only aware of the touching because Josh admitted to it. Are you suggesting we create trauma in the minds of these girls after the fact by convincing them that such an encounter demands trauma?
You tried to claim that sexual molestation of children is normal behaviour for teenagers to engage in. And then advised if your own child sexually molested your younger child, you would not do much at first, only "take whatever steps needed to stop it" if it continued and you have advised you would not report your child if your child was a child molester.Children of all age groups engage in this kind activity amongst themselves, so it’s not the touching that’s the problem, it’s who does the touching and how it’s perceived by the touchée and society. If my daughter who is four years older than my son had fondled his genitals when he was ten years old, I would not have contacted any authorities over a few reported incidents. If the behavior continued, I would likely take whatever steps needed to stop it, including professional counseling.
Tried to normalise and diminish sexual molestation of children once more and complained that child sexual molestation gets too much attention or garners so much concern.Everything you propose to be damaging about sexual abuse can be said of nonsexual abuse as well. Coercion, physical and intellectual dominance are going to be elemental in sibling relationships regardless of the inclusion of a sexual component, yet we don’t see much of a social cry to address these issues in proportional fashion. Throw sexuality in the mix and it suddenly becomes worthy of concern.
You consider it lucky that his parents did nothing for a year while the molestation continued and did not seek help for him, and then you said he was lucky that a paedophile broke the law to protect him and complained that the family's reputation is being flogged for their actions in protecting said child molester. At no time do you express concern for the daughters, and you completely ignore the context in which this molestation took place, including the fact that the girls were brought up in a household that taught them it was their responsibility to not be molested.He was lucky that the ex trooper didn’t refer the complaint to the cops. His daddy’s lies served him well. On the other hand, if Jim Bob had told the truth and got josh into mandatory counseling, it could of been factored into their future TV show as a social redemption story, instead of the reputational flogging the family is currently enduring.
That is just from page one.
And on and on it went.
The sickness continued on page two.
Diminishing the sexual molestation of the girls and being more concerned about their molester, once more ignoring the well known context that he was brought up in a household that was deliberately male orientated and where the boys have a greater say over their sister's bodies than their sister's do.You must be referring to the traumatic experience the girls suffered of being touched over their clothing while asleep, the experience that was so brutally violent that they had no recollection of it. On the other hand you had a teenage boy who was so guilt ridden that he went crying to his parents to confess his offensive actions, actions that if not corrected might someday land him in an institution. So who was really in need of most of their attention?
I suppose we should be thankful your children were never preyed on by child molesters, because instead of reporting it, you would be more intent on figuring out if they were really harmed by it before you would bother to report it.I don’t assess abusive behavior based on sexual content, I asses abusive behavior on its degree of harm. To suggest as you do, that because an action that was no physical threat and possibly only a minor emotional threat, deserved to be addressed in such an aggressive manner demonstrates a hypersensitive reaction to this situation. Incest and molestation, like other forms of undesirable behavior must be judged by their degree and nature of engagement, which means that corrective action needs to be proportional to the offense.
I would quote it all, but frankly, it would take multiple posts and I frankly do not have the time or the desire to delve back through your sickness to post it all.
It isn't libelous if it is true, Capracus. You have gone out of your way to normalise and diminish the sexual molestation of children. Not only that, you spent quite some time mocking the sexual molestation of children and rape.
If you don't want people to think that you believe that child sexual molestation isn't really that bad, then perhaps you should not post that you don't think it's that bad, that it is normal and mock victims of molestation and sexual abuse and compare it to kicks in the shins.
