Sexual harassment

[Alleo]

Just imagine you have a car accident because you sadly drove a bit faster than what is allowed. You land in hospital, barely survived it and maybe you will even be permanently hurt. And the thing that your family says to you is: Why could you not have driven slower? You should have been a good adult..Probably totally "helps" the person that already realized their mistake and paid for it the most.

The same with abuse. The person in question is probably already beating themselves up for it because that who suffer of the after effect are those that realized that they were abused. Thus imo the best that family could do is to support them without any negative comments...because the person itself will know the best what went wrong and now need all the help and support they can get, to get through this. (I mean abuse is whole different level than a child throwing a tandrum or doing something bad.)

@Aria: If your child has been sexually assaulted on the street would you really scold them for "mistakes"? Because hey she wore that short dress, its surely her fault and not the one that assaulted her.
