  • Abused and sexually traumatised by uncle at the age of 10.

    Abused and sexually traumatised by uncle at the age of 10.
    The year I turned ten was marked by an even more traumatic event.
    That summer I went on holiday to my grandparents who lived with two of their unmarried children, my uncle and aunt, on a farm 600 km from my parents' house.
    Another uncle, who was a priest, was staying there at the same time as me.
    One afternoon, my grandmother and aunt ask me to tell him to come to the snack bar and they tell me where he is in the meadow next to the farm yard, where he is reading his breviary.
    I know the area and find him easily. He asks me to sit next to him, but I don't feel like it because I don't feel close to this man, even though he seems to be "revered" in this very Catholic family.
    But I was taught to obey the adults and I am obedient. And then he runs his hand up my skirt, then into my panties and touches my private parts, which shocks me, but I don't talk to anyone about it, my grandmother and my aunt are women I don't feel close to, I find them very "moral" and given the status of adults in general and my uncle in particular, I know that I will not be believed, that I will be accused of lying and that I could be punished and ostracised, as well as my parents, I know that it is better for me to remain silent.
    Even before, I found this man a bit fake, mischievous, with wet, white hands compared to the hands of the men in the family, who were workers' hands. When he went on holiday to the family farm, he never helped, but bossed his mother and sister around, who worked hard.
    After that, I always stayed away from this man, who I thought was deceitful.
    I didn't tell this story until I was an adult, first to my younger sister, then to cousins and my other siblings, and I didn't go to his funeral because I knew he had abused many boys.
    L année de mes 10 ans a été marqué par un événement plus traumatisant.
    Cet été là, j etais en vacances chez mes grands parents qui vivaient dans une ferme avec deux de leurs enfants restés célibataires, mon oncle et ma tante,à 600 km de chez mes parents.
    Un autre de les oncles, prêtre, y séjournait egalement en même temps que moi.
    Un après-midi, ma grand mère et ma tante me demandent d aller lui dire de venir prendre le goûter et m indiquent où il se trouve dans la prairie proche de la cour de la ferme où il est en train de lire son bréviaire.
    Je connais les lieux et le trouve facilement . Il me demande de m asseoir à côté de lui, je n en ai pas plus envie que ça car je ne me sens pas prochede cet homme qui semble pourtant "vénéré " dans cette famille très catholique.
    Mais on m a appris à obéir aux adultes et je suis obéissante. Et alors il passe sa main sous ma jupe puis dans ma culotte et touche mon sexe ce qui me choque mais je n en parle à personne, ma grand-mère et ma tante sont des femmes dont je ne me sens pas proches , je les trouve très "dans la morale" et, vu le statut des adultes en général, et de mon uncle en particulier, je sais qu on ne me croira pas , qu on m accusera de mentir et que je risque d être punie et ostracisée ainsi que mes parents, je sais que c est mieux pour moi de me taire .
    Auparavent, je trouvais déjà cet homme un peu faux, mielleux, avec des mains moites et blanches par rapport aux mains des hommes de la famille qui étaient des mains de travailleur. Quand il venait en vacances à la ferme familiale, il ne donnais jamais un coup de main et il commandait sa mère et sa soeur qui, elles, travaillaient dur.
    Après je me suis toujours tenue à distance de cet homme que je trouvais fourbe.
    Je n ai révélé cette histoire qu à l âge adulte , en premier à ma jeune sœur, puis à des cousines et à mes autres frères et sœurs et je me suis abstenue d aller à son enterrement de cet abuseur d autant que j ai cru comprendre qu il avait abusé de beaucoup de jeunes garçons.

    Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case, but the Catholic Church has a hard time dealing with these problems. If you look at the number of moral crimes committed by priests in different religions, then celibacy is probably one of the reasons for these abuses. It is a relic from the Middle Ages, but people cannot and will not part with it. Divine inspiration or just bigotry ?

      I have not been abused by a priest, at least not in the sexual area. But in a really difficult situation (death of the mother) I was fobbed off by a Catholic priest with absolute cynicism. I was 12 years old at the time and the priest said to me, the Lord already knows what he is doing. I cried for days. Even today I feel deep disgust when I see one of these dark figures. And I hope he roasts in purgatory now.
