In 1997, 15-year-old Tina Anderson became pregnant after being raped repeatedly by an older man she knew from church. Shockingly, when her pastor found out, he forced her to apologize in front of the entire congregation in Concord, New Hampshire, and then promptly helped whisk her away to live in Colorado.

Now that the light of truth has been shed on the Vatican and its role in keeping abuse of children hidden, it is time to expose the suffering endured by thousands of mothers and children who were ordered back home to their violent husbands by Catholic priests after they had escaped such abuse.
It was standard practice to make mothers return with their children – No support given! No help given!, no advice given!
Just “Get back to your husband woman, that’s your place!”
Children and Mother continue to be abused by the psychopath legally endorsed by the system in the heart of Suffolk.

In my role as an independent supporter, adviser, and advocate for children and protective parents over the last 15 years, I have encountered and observed many situations of domestic violence and the terrorising of mothers and children by abusive males.
As an example, my most recent case involved a mother with two children and the abject fears, which the abuser brought into their lives. After many years of suffering such violence in all its forms, physical, mental, emotional, sexual and financial, the protective mother was finally able to gather enough strength to escape with her children from the torture and torment of their persecutor and tormentor.

Twice a year, I get really lame-brained “Warning!” emails about the latest crimes against women and/or tips-for-the-gullible on how to stay safe. They are typically lumped under subject lines that say “Prevent Sexual Assault!” or “Caution: Criminals Lurk in Dumpsters” or some such nonsense. Given that I’m an expert in personal safety and self-defense, they are mind-bogglingly stupid to me and my colleagues at IMPACT Personal Safety…

You are a 14-year-old girl. You’ve never been to school. You were married to a man in a neighboring village at age 13—before your first menstrual period—and six months later, you became pregnant. Now you are in labor with your first child.
Labor has already lasted for three days, but still the baby has not come. You are exhausted. You have lost a lot of blood and are running a fever. You haven’t passed urine in over two days, and your genitals are horribly swollen and bruised from the constant pushing. Why won’t the baby come out? you wonder. You dread the long, bony fingers of the old woman who is attending your birth. Nothing she does brings relief.

Women are particularly susceptible to bonding with those who traumatize them due to a hormone known as oxytocin. Oxytocin is referred to as the bonding hormone and is the chemical that starts the birthing process. It is the reason why a woman has a second child, as it prevents memory consolidation. If women were to fully remember the pain of childbirth, it is unlikely they would repeat the experience, hence it is nature’s way of ensuring the continuation of our species.
