A professionals appauling aproach to historic child abuse in the UK

18th Jan 2007 | in Social Care

I was horrified to read an article in the Guardian online. This will give us an insight not only into the ignorance of this woman whos a supposed professional but her attempt to undermine historic child abuse survivors is a disgusting stance to take. When I read this article it was the terms used that made me feel sick so please take time to read the article and let me know what you think ......

I found the author of this article bitter and as much as I read it and re-read it, it wreaked of a bitter women whom had no respect for historic abuse and I would like to point out that since when did a professional feel this an apropriate way to speak to any person when it comes to chld abuse no matter and quote

Quote = When Roger reiterated his worries, I questioned him further about the nature of the word "abuse". "What exactly do you mean by abuse, Roger?" I asked. "Were you sworn at, beaten, threatened, shagged or buggered?" = end quote

I am horrified to see Fay Wertheimer use such terms when aproaching the subject of child abuse. Is this a professional evaluation and is this the terminology now used for rape and sexual abuse to be shagged or buggered? I’m appauled at this article
