I was four years old, my sister was two months old, when it began. As it progressed over the years our mother would have denied it to the police. The police in 1966 would not listen to or investigate allegations from small children.
Which is my point. Our mother was typical of mothers in sexual abuse situations. In your clueless ignorance, you are determined that children stay in the custody of potentially dangerous people during an investigation into whether they are being harmed.
You have no credible reasoning as to why that should happen, only a dogged automatic dismissal of evidence being produced by said investigation.
I can testify that mothers of abused kids, especially in a religious setting, will usually side with their husband over the abused kid-— because it’s what God wants. (so they believe) And actually be an enabler and giving the child to the father for abuse. She’ll probably not even see it as abuse if her own spirit has been broken or she’s convinced of the ‘holiness’ of her husband.
Granted, very jaundiced eye here, but ya knowaddamean.
