Larue:
Thank you for your heartfelt post. This event happened three years ago. Those that were affected, went into counseling as soon as space was available. (We literally called them two days after the disclosure.) We continue to believe that there might be children who were not related due to some information we found; but thus far, no one has come forward.
And, it wasn't counseling provided by the 'system', thank God. We deliberately chose an independent entity. They were wonderful.
Your sentiments about making the right choice are appreciated more than you may realize. MANY adult survivors of sexual abuse (and those who were abused by siblings and relatives) have come up to us to say the same comments you have written.
I cannot understand how anyone could allow innocent children to deliberately be in harm's way, for the sake of ONE child in the family. As someone commented, and stats show, these kids are incredibly adept at finding the seconds/minutes to molest and assault others. Alarms, buzzers, detectors and (as was suggested to us as well)....even monitors, WILL NOT keep ALL innocent children SAFE at all times---despite 'line of sight supervision'. Nothing will.
Sincerely,
Linny
