This is the wreckage caused by raping children. Big old trigger warning: this links to the suicide note of Bill Zeller, an extremely talented programmer who took his own life a few days ago due to psychological damage caused by sexual abuse as a child. Anyone who tries to excuse the rape or sexual abuse of children under any guise or with any excuse should be forced to read this over and over, at least a dozen times, until maybe they get it. And then they should be kicked in the teeth repeatedly for even thinking to do such a stupid thing.

Hmmm. Sometimes "things will get better". Sometimes, though? They really don't, no matter how much time and effort is expended.

The optimist then would say that so long as there is more time there is possibility that they will. Death closes that door.

And no, I'm not saying that anyone in enough pain to want to die should be forced to keep living in pain. Only that enough pain blinds us to the possibility of it waning.
