Including, but not limited to, genuine disgust, hate, disrespect, threats and even physical manhandling by law enforcement. Many of us, myself included, have been harassed and mistreated by news media as well.

I know you are limited for space, so this is just to add to the conversation! For example, the blog seems to refer mostly to adults who sexually abuse and their families. When the person causing the harm is an adolescent or child, the families are struggling with additional issues that are not fully listed here: how to hold the teen or child accountable AND offer them hope to lead a healthy life, if the child victimized is in the family, how to hold the multiple roles of support for everyone, and so much more. These conversations are so important and hopefully further research will be put into place to ensure that we are doing all we can to support the families who keep our communities safer. Thank you again for raising these important questions and issues. Joan Tabachnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04261486304948339174noreply@blogger.com
