I had a Bishop that I went to after being sexually assaulted, as a child. My parents thought that this interview would help me, as nobody wanted to report what happened. They thought by talking to the Bishop this would help me heal. Instead, he asked me questions that were not appropriate or healing, I came away feeling awful. He put the blame on me. This has effected my life, it left me with years of shame, and depression. I believe if one of my parents would have been in the room in wouldn’t have happened. I believe these interviews behind closed doors shouldn’t happen!
