An injury to one is an injury to all! And civilization is determined by how a people treat the young the elderly and the disabled https://www.change.org/petitions/wo...itation-of-minors-and-the-mentally-challenged
I agree, MimiBelle which is why a community should never pretend to be unaware of the possibility of these types of things happening; take a strong stand and be actively involved in creating systems and processes that minimize the abuse; let it be known broadly to all that abusive behavior of any kind won't be tolerated; and always be vigilant to spot it and committed to protecting those that can't protect themselves. NO ONE in our community should suffer in silence or be made to feel that we don't care about them.this is sad but no surprise. (sexual) abuse of the mentally ill isn't a new thing...and a fair amt of males behave in such an inhumane fasion. like animals. as if they were hatched from pods or something.
all the same....
when you can't defend yourself properly, expect someone to take advantage of that.
