I realize I'm kinda splitting hairs by saying this... and in the greater scheme of things because any child abuse, especially sexual, is f***ed up so I shouldn't be splitting hairs, but technically, when it comes to other countries, much of child sexual abuse reported internationally, even in countries that have problems with rape, sexual assault etc. commonly known to be a bigger epidemic than in the US, it isn't as commonly reported to be at the hands of a parent or parents. I recall plenty of stories where underage girls have been sold into child marriage and sexual slavery by their parents, which is by no means not atrocious and unacceptable, but the crimes committed by the parents in those cases are more consistent with the crimes committed by the mother in this case than the father. The statistics Gary posted seem to be more along the lines of direct incestuous sexual contact than all-encompassing parental sex crimes, and would exclude instances of parents selling their kids into sexual slavery or being bribed into looking the other way by a wealthy relative or neighbor, which is the sort of crime that is more prevalent in third world regions than in the US, and if included would statistically swing the pendulum back to a degree. I think the issue is looking at the wrong statistics. The most important stat imo is "What is the % chance that you will be raped by a parent?" Like the composition of the abuser base is sort of irrelevant if the proportion of child rapes is much different. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
