If it was hard to deal with the concept of the received guilt or the potential for received guil on a willing child in a nurturing relationship, is it harder or easier to deal with the guilt that the victim of abuse feels?

And is this guilt easier or harder if the abuser is prosecuted?

PLEASE, again let us not go over old ground. That is a matter of historical record on so many pages here. Instead let's look at the practoical things we may even be able to influence for the future.

I am definingabuse as "Any physical or emotional act that caused serious emtional or physical distress, not limited to matters of a sexual nature, and whose effect was long lasting to the victim, whether legal or illegal"
