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. The Christian religion at its core is a toxic mechanism whereby intergenerational trauma is kept alive, active, and deeply embedded in each new generation, as it has done over the past 2,000+ years.
WORKING NOTES :
Informed Consent
Child's Rights Focus: The process of obtaining informed consent must prioritize the child's right to protection and autonomy. This involves clearly explaining the study's purpose, methods, potential risks, and benefits in a way that is understandable to both the child and their guardians. Consent should be voluntary and free from any coercion, respecting the child's right to participate or decline without any repercussions.
Child Assent
Child's Rights Focus: Assent goes beyond merely obtaining consent from guardians; it involves actively seeking the child's agreement to participate. This process respects the child's developing capacity for decision-making and autonomy. Children should be provided with age-appropriate information about the study and given the opportunity to express their willingness or reluctance to participate. Their choices and opinions should be respected, in line with their right to be heard and taken seriously.
Confidentiality
Child's Rights Focus: Maintaining confidentiality is crucial in respecting the child's right to privacy and protection. This means ensuring that the child's identity and responses are not disclosed to unauthorized parties. Information should be securely stored and only accessible to authorized researchers. Children and their guardians must be informed about how data will be protected, used, and shared, emphasizing that personal identifiers will be removed or anonymized in any reports or publications.
In all these considerations, the paramount concern is the child's well-being and rights. The ethical framework should be grounded in the principles of respect for the child’s dignity, best interests, and evolving capacities, aligning with international standards like the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Questionnaire Design Propose 10 appropriate questions
ChatGPT Designing a questionnaire to understand children's awareness and thoughts about the issue of sexual abuse within the Roman Catholic religion requires careful consideration to ensure that the questions are age-appropriate, non-leading, and sensitive to the child's emotional well-being. Here are 10 proposed questions, structured to be answered with a simple Yes or No, suitable for different age groups:
For Younger Children (Grades 1-3) Do you feel safe at your school/church?
Aim: To gauge the child's general sense of safety in their religious environment. Have you been taught about what to do if someone makes you feel uncomfortable?
Aim: To assess awareness of personal safety and boundaries. Do you know who to talk to if you or a friend feels scared or hurt?
Aim: To gauge the child's general sense of safety in their religious environment. Have you been taught about what to do if someone makes you feel uncomfortable?
Aim: To assess awareness of personal safety and boundaries. Is you right to refuse physicial contact respected?
Aim: To understand if children know about trusted adults they can approach. For Middle Grade Children (Grades 4-6) Do you think adults at your school/church listen to what children have to say?
Aim: To evaluate the perceived responsiveness of adults in authority to children's concerns. Are there rules at your school/church about how adults and children should interact?
Aim: To check awareness of conduct guidelines and boundaries. Have you had any classes or talks about personal safety and your rights?
Aim: To determine if children have been educated about personal safety and their rights. For Older Children (Grades 7-9). Do you feel that you have enough information about what is right and wrong behavior from adults towards children?
Aim: To assess the child's understanding of appropriate and inappropriate adult behavior. Are you aware of any instances where children's rights were not respected in your school/church?
Aim: To probe awareness of rights violations in their immediate environment. Do you think children are protected and taken seriously in your religious community?
Aim: To gauge perceptions of child protection and seriousness within the community. For High School Students (Grades 10-12). Have you discussed or learned about the issue of child abuse within the Roman Catholic Church in any of your classes or youth groups?
Aim: To understand the level of open discussion and education regarding the specific issue of child abuse within the Church. Each of these questions is designed to be straightforward for children to understand and respond to, providing valuable insights into their awareness and perceptions regarding safety, protection, and the issue of abuse within their religious context.

Do any of the following apply to you?
Scoring Instructions:
For each question, assign a score of 1 for "Yes" and 0 for "No." Sum
the total score upon completion. A higher cumulative score indicates a greater number of adverse religious
experiences, which may warrant further support or intervention.
0-2: Low CARE score; may indicate fewer adverse religious environmental experiences.
3-5: Moderate CARE score; suggests a higher level of adverse experiences that could potentially impact well-being.
6-10: High CARE score; indicates a significant number of adverse religious environmental experiences, which may correlate with more severe outcomes.
Interpretation:
The CARE score is a preliminary assessment tool designed to identify
potential adverse religious experiences. It is not a diagnostic instrument but can be used to signal the need
for a more comprehensive evaluation by a qualified professional.
The CARE score, is not a diagnostic tool but a screening method to identify potential risk factors that may contribute to later health or social problems. A high CARE score would suggest the need for further assessment and possibly professional support for dealing with the consequences of these adverse experiences.
It's important to note that the CARE score should be used with sensitivity and awareness of its limitations. It does not account for the resilience factors, support systems, or individual coping mechanisms that can mitigate the impact of adverse experiences. Professional interpretation and follow-up are crucial for individuals with moderate to high scores.
Privacy and Confidentiality:
Your responses are confidential. If you feel comfortable sharing
this information, please know that it will be used to better understand the impact of adverse religious
experiences and to improve support services.
2023 Findings in Spain found that 0.6% of the population of Spain had been sexually abused by Roman Catholic priests and laity. Up to 50 million alive on any day who have been raped or abused by Catholic clergy &/or Catholic laity
Current world population is 8 billion - 0.6% = 48 million alive today who are likely to have been raped by Catholics globally.
The church protected the perpetrators, not the victims
"This is a matter for the church and I respect the internal judgements of the church. I don't stand outside the church and provide them with public lectures in terms of how they should behave. I've noted carefully what his Holiness has said in the United States. Obviously that was a source of great comfort and healing in the United States. I'm like all Australians very much looking forward to what the Pope has to say here in Australia as well, as I am to my own conversation with the Pope later this morning." Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister of Australia, 17 July 2008. more
