How much of āunfair smear-campaigns that will be initiated at breakneck speed to everyone the parents know, the lack of compassion, understanding and support from others, and the loneliness, confusion and grief to process after we sever ties.ā ā¦ #dysfunctional family? (1 of 2)
ā¦understanding and support from others, and the loneliness, confusion and grief to process after we sever ties.ā ā¦ are experienced by those whoāve withdrawn from a #dysfunctional family? #nationalredress is approaching settlement for 1 CSA surviving-victim: āApologiesā awaited. (2 of 2)
Although weāre each taught that toddlers-teenagers are to be treated with āpurety + innocenceā, as āchildren of godā, Institutions of #BaptistChurch, #BrisbaneBoysCollege + #BoysBrigade have had their past behaviours brought into question. -(twitter)- #DSS-#NRS will now research their inclusion, in preparation for assessment of these #ChildSexualAbuse impacts. Bless each of you.
Does the mention of any of the terms of ācorruption, abuse, deception, obstructionā cause a creepy feeling, the hairs on the back of your neck stand, or a chill run down your spine? You may have been effected by any of inappropriate issues, that are still becoming prevalent today. Most of us are familiar with the saying of āPower corrupts. Absolute power corrupts, absolutelyā. (Lord Acton)
Translations of this are often made into areas of vulnerability: Teacher-Students (pedophilia), Church Leader-Youth (child sexual abuser), Sports Coach-Player (privatelessons), Disability Carer-disabled (manipulation), Government-Indigenous (stolen generations), Caretaker-Retiree (aged care abuse) and Banks-Customers (coercion). Thankfully, thereās been many Royal Commissions called, with more to come. Our āRoyalCommBBCā is only a small example of what can be possible, when the Sharing of beneficial Information-News-Experiences-Solutions are made.
A great part of any Institution, is that like members typically stick together. Itās been found that when āreality hits homeā, many of us acknowledge that theyāre not alone AND there is a simple solution available. This is where RCbbc can help, in supporting past Students, Parents and Friends in contacting experts in their fields.
In something that’s been drummed home home: from both my own personal histories being restated, support gained from researching similar ordeals & simply speaking to a growing number of other CSA Survivours/Family members. None of us are alone!
As unique as what each of us may feel, in one part we are completely correct, while in another we’ve gained entry into one of the world’s most secret societies that money can’t buy. We’re individual AND part of something bigger than those not in, will ever realise. For something that seems oxymoronic to explain, once you’ve entered into you may feel like inviting in others who you’ve always had a suspicion of, but weren’t brave enough to take that leap.

“Delay, Deny and Deflect: How Facebookās Leaders Fought Through Crisis” is what a New York Times Article is titled, followed by the overplayed icon photograph:
Facebook has gone on the attack as one scandal after another ā Russian meddling, data sharing, hate speech ā has led to a congressional and consumer backlash.CreditCreditTom Brenner for The New York Times
Having paid significant attention to moments that FB-Facebook has appeared on Australia’s ABC, I recognised similarities between one monolith & that of church Institutions in Australia. National Redress Scheme is applicable to any Child Abuse Survivour, yet hearing of deaths before Compensation &/or Redress is made seems to reignite the fire.
Please read through the linked Article above: “The long, painful wait …” to read information such as the following:
āThese figures confirm what we have known; there is huge inequity between the Catholic Churchās wealth and their responses to survivors,ā said Helen Last, chief executive of the In Good Faith Foundation, which supports abuse survivors.
āThe 600 survivors registered for our foundationās services continue to experience minimal compensation and lack of comprehensive care in relation to their church abuses. They say their needs are the lowest of church priorities.ā
Healy said the church’s meeting the claims of survivors whose complaints of abuse were upheld was āamongst its highest prioritiesā. He said that since that report the church had paid an extra $17.2 million to survivors.
The AgeāsĀ investigation also calls into question the privileges the church enjoys, including exemptions from nearly all forms of taxation and billions of dollars in government funding each year to run services – $7.9 billion for its Australian schools alone in 2015.
It involved obtaining property valuations from 36 Victorian councils, including most of the Melbourne metropolitan area, Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo, many under freedom of information.
It identified more than 1860 church-owned properties with ācapital improved valueā (land plus buildings) of just under $7 billion.
