"The evidence strongly suggests that far from being unable to remember sexual abuse, victims typically find it all too difficult to keep such memories out of their consciousness."

The above fact has been stated by Dr. Laura, repeatedly on her radio program, as far back as 12 years ago that I recall. I believed her then and believe it now.

Simply tragic and depressing how many families have been shattered by such false memories. How is this going to be corrected and rectified in the psychiatic community?

I am sure I have read where some psychiatrists say recovered memory syndrome is totally made up. I have also read of several cases where it was determined that the memories were purposely implanted by social workers and the woman then thinks they are true.

I wonder what the profession as a whole thinks of it? Do they still accept it or is it officially no longer considered valid?

Maybe it won't be.
