It seems the Catholic Church, the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints still view children as property.
'Childhood sexual abuse affects victims in nearly every area of their lives from physical and mental health to interpersonal relationships. It even causes brain damage, affecting the way victims experience stress and memory recall and causing emotional and attentional abnormalities.
Exceptions to mandatory reporting laws tell victims that their abuse isn’t serious enough to require reporting.
The point of mandatory reporting laws is to put the responsibility for ending child abuse on everyone. Clergy should not be excluded from that responsibility, especially when they belong to a church that has a history of hiding child abuse.'
