Welcome to another week.
Abusive initiation ceremonies in sport where children are being sexually assaulted by peers are still viewed as ‘the norm’ by parents and sporting professionals.
It has also been reported that high profile and well connected parents have been trying to convince police receiving complaints that this kind of behaviour is ‘just a bit of fun’. A sharp increase in reports of child sexual abuse in sport raises serious questions about British culture and the pressure on children to ‘agree’ to being assaulted in order to be part of clubs and elite teams.
Our question this week then is this: how can we ensure this kind of abuse in sport is stopped?

Thanks for pointing this abuse out, Natasha! One ‘episode’ of ‘shock therapy’ after another in this process of waking up and dis-illusionment…

It’s amazing the amount of sadism parents will tolerate in the name of education – and initiation. I was told I was over-reacting when it was my turn to play mother-hen – but at least it was moderated after my ‘interference’.

I’m afraid not, but I would imagine given the silence that followed that it either didn’t make it to court or was turned down by the Hague.

if thats the case then that is a shame. its that sort of action that could open up the whole corrupt system and bring hundreds of prosecutions against S/Workers,Judges, guardians, expert witnesses and others.
its way way overdue.
