The inability of a child to thrive in a Constitutionally protected God based perpetual threat and rape culture is not a fault of the child; however it does become their odious responsibility upon reaching adulthood.
"Chronic Cultural Trauma. Exploiting Chronic Emotional Manipulation and Horror Embedded Cultural Trauma and Mental Health "
A recent engagement with the Royal Commission set me down this pathway of looking at some aspects of trauma in regards our engagement and common understandings of a trauma informed discussion.
You are a traumatised person, you are a survivor of childhood abuse in religious institutions - how often have you heard from those in positions of contact or authority say to you "Put that in writing"
How do you respond? Do you know what is being asked of you?
What is being asked of you is for you to go back unassisted to delve into the insanity or your abuse and to draw from that a cogent understandable literary piece in a language that you are not skilled in and is not suitable in describing the effects of childhood trauma. Being asked to do this has become so entrenched in government systems that it unwillingly re traumatises those of us that have been abused.
What should happen in those circumstances. You local politician or police if they are genuine will assist you in the difficult task that they are asking you to engage in.
The current use of the words "Put it in writing" is not appropriate and only serves to block the transfer of any further information in regard to the real issue.
When you hear them pushing you back into your abuse without forewarning or support it can only be said that they are not trauma informed and are not being helpful.
At the time of my discussion I fell back on my own inadequacies which stem from my abuse as an 8 year old which interrupted my education which effectively silences when it comes to putting it in writing. I figured that in that way I am no different to the hundreds of thousands of children that were sent to Catholic schools where they endured what can today be described as an insane environment that exposed children to a way above average risk of sexual abuse by people in authority.
When you consider the use of authority and how deep that runs in our system it is not unthinkable to think that the Royal Commission has not yet been given the opportunity to hear of perspectives like this as they do not meet with the insanity of the teachings of the Catholic Church.
