Inside the Minds of Child Molesters - Oprah

Andrew, Jr. · 02-08-2010, 03:52 PM

Today Oprah had this show on 4 convicted child molesters/sex offenders. It was a no holds barred conversation. They talked about grooming their victims, outwitting parents, creating bonds with their victims, and talking to their victims like they were a couple. In some of their minds, they even pretended that they were a couple. Oy vey. I think they are manipulators, devious, and create a cycle of sexual abuse that lasts sometimes for years and years, and sometimes for a month or two.

How the child molestors/sex offenders ignore that they are damaging these children for life just blows my mind. One offender said that he murdered the child he molested for over 12 years. She will never be the woman she could have been. She forgave him, but he said what he did was unforgiveable. That is the only part he got right.

Not one of the 4 convicted molestors thought or believed they were causing harm to their victims. Each one believed that they were filling a void in the victims life. It changes who you are. The extent of devistation is just overwhelming as far as I am concerned. How a 60+ year old can molest a 5 year old just is unbelieveable to me. It is weird. I cannot wrap my head around this. Not at all. Children should talk if anything like this happens. It is a huge red flag waving.

I am a survivor. This show really hit home for me. I just cried.

Namaste,
Andrew
