Are you really this comically stupid. Do you even have kids? Do you ever speak to kids? Okay I'll go point by point despite the fact that ALL of these questions have been answered by the data itself. Because people like you require spoonfeeding to get past your automatic brain power-downs when it comes to subjects you're uncomfortable with.
- Kids are emotionally confused by molestation. Often times they allow it to continue because they fear displeasing the predator (who they often are close to before it begins), or fear of reprimand from the Family. Depicting this as a normal response can ease the self-loathing of feeling conflicted.
- Kids are sexually confused by molestation, Hell even adults are. Prison psychologists will tell you that there is a phenomenon of men in prison who get raped, get an erection during the rape because it's a physical reaction they cannot control, will then THINK they are gay. Educating kids on the difference between a physical reaction they commonly associate with a positive experience doesnt make the experience okay, is a good thing. This is why boys who have inappropriate relationships with female sexual predators will be conflicted. She made them erect, being erect is good because it feels good. But the relationship is illegal and wrong.
- Kids will be mentally confused by sexual molestation. When something that sh*tty happens to a kid they can do mental backflips to see it in a positive light and avoid processing the harm it did. I had a student whose Mother and Uncle murdered his Father, now she is doing lifen prison over it. His way of shrugging it off was to say he wasn't very close to his Father anyway. His Uncle told me he doesnt much talk to anyone about it. I suggested therapy because the Uncle had 8 other kids and he was just going around with those feelings, not processing them. A kid is likely to spend a period of time trying to mentally turn that negative experience into a positive one in their heads, as opposed to admitting the over all reality of it.
And the tone of such books over all is that the experience or the author or protagonist was a net negative. They have to seek help to make heads or tails of what happened. This encourages communication. Kids who read about someone who had a similar experience but then reached out for help dealing with it are FAR more likely to do the same. There is no scenario in which arming a kid with the ability to describe what they're going through, or what someone is doing to them, is a net negative.
And no one suggested LESS "reading, writing, 'rithmetic"...that came from your own brain. I said the idea that that's all education is and ever should be is idiotic, especially by anyone who spends any significant amount of time screeching about the vulnerabilities of the children.
. What kind of mutant writes this shit?
