[SES1066]

Leduc said they advised her that Victoria's educational assistant (EA) had visited a psychic, who said a youngster whose name started with "V" was being sexually abused by a man between 23 and 26 years old. Leduc was also handed a list of recent behaviours exhibited by her daughter.

"The teacher looked and me and said: 'We have to tell you something. The educational assistant who works with Victoria went to see a psychic last night, and the psychic asked the educational assistant at that particular time if she works with a little girl by the name of "V." And she said 'yes, I do.' And she said, 'well, you need to know that that child is being sexually abused by a man between the ages of 23 and 26.'" From City News Toronto, Canada.

What is this world coming to when a second-hand psychic report is valid basis to refer to potential child abuse. Yes this is Canada, but still, is there no shame??

My answer: My psychic says your psychic is possessed, and that you are an evil, conniving liar.

The local CAS won't comment on specific investigations, but said the legislation stipulates that all cases of suspected abuse be reported "if there are reasonable grounds."

A comment would be superflous.

[Sherman Logan]

Or possibly superfluous.

Huh. You’d think she’d see that comming.
