The last command Christ gave Peter was to "Feed my lambs (children), Tend my sheep, feed my sheep." (John 21:17)  This last command to Peter, the head of the Church, is known in military parlance as the "Prime mission."  this, ABOVE ALL ELSE, was the prime goal of the Church.  When you let evil run rampant among the innocent in the Church, you aren't carrying out your mission. Pope Francis has proven himself quick to act in the past by restructuring the Vatican bank and ostracizing some prelates, but seems to be "unmotivated" about child sex abuse.  He isn't carrying out his prime mission.
