That they can TELL someone of the abuse and that homeschooled children do not have that option. I was merely pointing out that Calista had TWO siblings in public school who could have asked for help. But as you pointed out victims of abuse seldom do. I also suspect the two children in public school were abused. Obviously homeschooling v public schooling had nothing to do with the abuse going on in Calista's home.Alastriona, The Cats and Dogs https://www.blogger.com/profile/13233710830920626326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-6130167270326538472009-12-18T10:57:29.138-06:002009-12-18T10:57:29.138-06:00I agree that homeschooling was not the problem; ho...I agree that homeschooling was not the problem; however, it's not right to ask why the other children didn't tell. <br />Abusive homes breed an environment of silence. Most children would never tell for fear of not being believed or for fear that them or their siblings would be hurt worse or even killed. Abusers control children with violence and threats of violence and other manipulation. It's an extremely dangerous thing to put any kind of blame on the children and it's shameful to even suggest that the children could have stopped it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-49048292152845935462009-12-18T10:09:21.940-06:002009-12-18T10:09:21.940-06:00YES !!
