Of course this is the "safety program" used by many dioceses including the archdiocese of Boston to satisfy the insurance companies and the secular media that they are "doing something" about sexual abuse by priests.
Here is what a mother told me was contained in the first grade program this year:
But the material she (the teacher) is supposed to cover is so graphic and alarming that I couldn't be at peace knowing what the intended lesson was. They had an uncle attempting to undress along with his nephew and you can guess his intentions, a child who comes into school beat up by her mother, and a little girl who is fondled by a friends big brother. It's almost like by presenting these scenarios to kids of this age they are almost inflicting abuse.
And here is the immediate result:
I have been approached by a few parents whose children have had backlash from the program, such as one little girl whose Mom didn't know about TAT and had two little boys pull down her pants shortly after having the class.
Judge for yourself. I don't believe I even have to comment.
Our Lady of Joyful Hope-pray for us! ... Oremus pro invicem!
