Would your kids even tell you if they’d been abused?

In public education they are very aware of child abuse and have strong programs regarding it.

In the Catholic Church/school world just whom among the many clergy administrators decides how to cover it up this time?

Earlier this year, the Southern Baptist Convention acknowledged they spent years protecting over 700 ministers and church workers who were credibly accused of sexual abuse. I’m sure they found them all, didn’t they?

2nd largest Christian denomination in the U.S—and nobody is discussing it.

Poor victim
Never mind the continual half truths you post and believe

What was the reason you claim to have gotten out of education?

You have a very interesting take on what it means to be a victim Pete.

"What was the reason you claim to have gotten out of education?"

"Claim"?

Loved the kids, despised the effect of the union, didn't much care for the parents, who in the city I taught were mostly irresponsible deadbeats. And if I'm being honest, money was part of the reason. I'd love to teach math at a tiny catholic school after my kids are out of college though. A place where I could just teach and not spend half my time being a disciplinarian/social worker.
