Oh, and supposedly Mac will be joining Chynna on Oprah tomorrow.
And OJ isn't a double murderer.
The story becomes even more bizarre if you only quote the first 2 lines:
And OJ isn't a double murderer.
Debra Borys, Ph.D., a Los-Angeles-based therapist specializing in issues of abuse and incest, agrees and points out that many victims of abuse ultimately start making accommodations in their own belief systems. Mackenzie, for example, has repeatedly stated that her father was not a bad man but rather suffering from mental illness. "The abusers become such a key attachment figure in the lives of their victims," Borys says. "And when it's been a long-term relationship started in childhood or adolescence, the victim may feel he or she is special to the abuser."
Nagy says in his experience it is rare to see adults continue in incestuous relationships once they've come of age, but it does happen. "It's a huge boundary violation that begins in pre-adolescence and adolescence, and those years of conditioning to be subservient just don't go away in adulthood," he explains. "It's easy to regress and dissociate and become an adolescent all over again."
No words for this. Why would she tell the world?? I don't even know how to rationalize this. A 10 year relationship?
/wtf wtf wtf
exactly, and it makes me sick to my stomach. i used to know someone who had been raped by a relative and no one believed them. ugh.Sadly, this sort of story is not that uncommon.

yeah, i can imagine. thankfully i've never personally experienced anything like that, but for the courage for anyone to come forward with a story like this and to not be believed? it's just so sad. i know very, very rarely people do make up incest/rape stories but they're the exception, not the norm. it really saddens me that some people always default to the excuse that they must be lying about it.I work with kids all the time that tried telling others YEARS before anyone would actually believe them.
