She was very vocal in her support of me and questioned those in the local Hierarchy about what they were doing to support victims. Both of these sisters dealt with the abuse in their own way. One was not right and the other wrong. I guess my question for women who remain in the Church is more along these lines. Women are now and always have been the lifeblood of the Church. They are the wives and mothers who make their children attend Mass and hold their husbands accountable. And yet they are treated much like battered wives by the men who run the Church. They are ignored, neglected and given no power in the running of the Church. Yet they keep going back for more, believing that this time things will be different. This time he will treat me better. This time he will change. If women ever get to the point that they have had enough of this cycle, look out. I believe that the time is coming.Hierarchy, be forewarned.
