04/09 The Dr. Phil House: Saving Grace
Quote From: yougtbk From what I saw of the show The child didn't say anything until bath time and the grandmother was in dis-belief that her husband would do something like that.
We had one here two years ago that just now came to trial and the mother didn't report it she talked to the dad later the next day and this wasn't someone they knew she saw it happen she was in dis-belief and he didn't get arrested for it. If its really hard for some one you don't know and see. What it would be like for someone you do know and don't see?
In the show I heard the parents talked to the grandparents and the child told the parents. I did not hear the part where the child came back to the house after she told her grandmother and the abuse continued under her grandmothers and parents knowlege. As far as I know nothing happened to the child after she told the grandmother and the grandmother knew nothing of it before the child said anything. I just dont see where anyone would think it was her fault that her husband abused the granddaugher.
Which passage is that " it would be better for someone to hang a rock around their necks and drown then to hurt an innocent child" I remember "thou shalt not kill." and besides the grandmother, Todd doesn't seem to want to disolve ties with his father and wants to forgive him or why would they even be there. Would you tie one around his neck too? Youre the self professed Christian, you go find the verse! Its right around the same part of the Bible where Jesus says, "If youre hand causes you to sin, cut it off. If your eyes cause you to sin, pluck them out..."
I guess you dont adhere to those Bible verses either. I like how you pick and choose what works for your postion and what doesent.
Youre trying to make it out like this woman was in such disbelief and that is why she never told? GIVE ME A BREAK! Whether you believe, disbelieve, or arent sure, when a child tells you your husband just sexually assaulted her, you act! DUH!
Nothing you can say will change that. You can try and avoid this simple fact with misdirection, excuses and denials but, to use a Dr. Phil quote, that dog wont hunt.
