I revealed just a few of them on my blog. Like you, Katie, I didn't report any of mine except for one in which my step father tried to rape me when I was 7. I told my mother about it and she did nothing. He had already left the home and they were split up. Typical narcissist that she was, she said, "If I'd known that, I would have divorced him sooner." It was all about her. Unfortunately, we live in a world in which, not only is assault of females COMMON, but authority figures react according to their own needs and prejudices. Thanks for writing this, Katie.Silver Parnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11818908798039734680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4485570493745333430.post-66499850492107918742016-10-09T19:41:10.581-04:002016-10-09T19:41:10.581-04:00I am so sorry for your pain, for all those past li...I am so sorry for your pain, for all those past little Katie's who were hurt and objectified for someone else's base and gross gratification.

This (plus your article on moral dilemmas http://peoplesheadsandbabyfaces.blogspot.ca/2016/07/on-moral-dilemmas-and-not-giving-up-ship.html) are the first I've read of your writing.
