I agree with most of the comments written by "VillagesFlorida". They are
pretty rationale. Anyone who is a Theryapist or has evey experienced
or read about "pedophiles" would understand the terrible impact it can
have on a child and how it could very easily lead to a "Disassociative
Disorder". It is almost like a "dual personality" caused by childhood abuse.
Most experienced Theryapists recognize and are familiar with the disorder and how it can be a result from sexual abuse as a child.
It is hard if not almost impossible for a normal person to either understand
or accept the disorder since they have either (a) not studied the disease or
(b) were not sexually abused as a child. There has been an accusation that the father sexually abused her. If that is the case then it could lead to
all sorts of mental disorders and problems. The philosophical question is how
much is the victim responsible and is further punishment called for or should
there be some empathy and treatment. As the famous psychiatrist said
when interviewed on TV, she may actually be the victim??
