Forgotten abuses

The Irish Times 'Health Family' supplement this week carries a piece on sibling bullying.

In a small online survey carried out at UCD 31 per cent of participants considered they had been bullied by a sibling.

Sibling bullying is significantly more prevalent - as much as three times - than school bullying

According to Professor Mark Kiselica of Cabrini University, Pennsylvania it remains 'a forgotten abuse'.

Has there ever been a study done on abuse within priesthood or in religious congregations?

Certainly another 'forgotten abuse'.
