This kind of stuff makes my flesh creep. I cannot understand how anyone could do anything so disgusting to a child, and how a whole industry is built up around it, however much in the shadows it is.
As if it wasn't hard enough to bring up kids in the first place, there are these perverted predators lurking and waiting to destroy the life of some innocent kid.
Kink-shaming - a word I never heard of before, but one that could cover a multitude of heinous sins.
Thanks for writing about this very difficult topic.
Thanks Maggie. There are so many things about this that are so upsetting. The ABC has done a lot of great coverage but I fear it will get lost in mushroom lady headlines and the centres won't be made accountable. Nor the investors raking in the returns, or the CEOs. Apparently Hesta, a super fund, is "continuing to monitor the situation closely and the steps G8 takes to ensure child safety." That ship has sailed!

Well-put, Zoe. So sad and awfuI, I really feel for affected families. The whole issue needs more serious clear-eyed analysis, like this 💔
Thank you. I really hope the families get the support they deserve.
