This is one of them.
This story has been all over the news the last couple of days. It highlights the depravity of some members of society... three people have been charged with horrific child abuse and distributing pornographic images of children...one of them is a nursery worker, all of them are parents.
Now police and social workers are trying to work out who the children are in the images. Aparently so bad, they could not even describe them for the press.
It is the worst kind of abuse of trust, abusing the most vulnerable. Abusing innocent children while their parents feel they are in a safe, secure, loving enviroment.
Some freinds and I were talking about this, and one felt that it almsot seems worse when its women involved, is this true????
"Female sex abuse often remains hidden behind the veil of happy family life and the apparently normal relationship between mother and child so victims are less likely to come forward.
And those in contact with the family are less likely to notice what is happening.
This combined with the stigma and silence surrounding the issue means the result is chronic under-reporting.
The statistics in this field are dangerously inadequate, but it is estimated that at least 25% of victims of sexual abuse are abused by women.
Two years ago the Behavioural Analysis Unit at CEOP (The Child Expoloitation and Online Protection taskforce) began a study into female sex offenders.
The results are still several years away, but Graham Hill, leading the team, expects the findings to show a high incidence of female sex offending.
These monsters are due to be sentenced next month. one things for sure, whatever happens to them, will be less than they deserve.
My heart goes out to the babies and their families, imagine how hard it will be for them to let those children out of their sight again, imagine how hard it will be to ever trust anyone again. As parents we are told to show preference to well run, registered nurseries rather than child minders... tell these parents that!

Being in Spain means that at times we miss some of the things going on back home but no matter how hard it is to see these things, see them we must so thank you for putting this out there Sally.
I have nothing more to add, your posting does it all but yes Sally, I think it is worse when women are involved. We carry children within us, we have breasts, wombs and vaginas; we're different, but equal to men. Surely if we women can stoop to such depravity then nothing it appears can ever be taken for granted again.

This just gave me the chills. I do not even begin to understand how someone could harm a child or anyone for that matter. But a child and in that horrible way. Praying for those families involved, a lifetime of hurt, at someone's cruel hands...
