He thought children and siblings having s3x was normal. He actively avoids children because he’s terrified of hurting them. He cuts himself on his neck to feel pain he feels he deserves. This is one of the most honest, tortured souls I’ve ever experienced.

[@YumiJutsu]

I don’t think he avoids children because he thinks he’ll hurt them. He straight up said that’s not the reason. It’s because he doesn’t want people to even think that about him cuz they know about his case. I’m also thinking children remind him of what happened to him as a child and also what he’s done as a child himself.

[@lisab7798]

@@loz1725 What are you talking about? What are the 2 wrongs? He is genuinely sorry and will forever be known as a child molester, even when HE was also a kid. Is his apology the other wrong?? I'm so tired of fake compassion. You don't care about that girl. She is completely unknown. We saw ONE story...his. We know absolutely zero about the girl. Saying her life was destroyed proves my point. You don't know that. The only life you can actually SEE is destroyed is his. No one said he doesn't deserve punishment, but I'm saying he also deserves forgiveness, because he seems sincere in his apology. How could any of that be a second wrong?! What you said makes no sense is extremely obvious that you are fake and pretending to be a "good person" when you don't even understand what it takes to be that kind of person. What is your goal? For strangers to think, "What a good person, who cares so much about this girl, who goes through comments to find something to criticize and try to compete for "most compassionate," and condemn anyone who has ever done anything wrong despite their apparent regret. THAT person must be absolutely full of goodness and never did anything to hurt anyone ever. THAT person must have no regrets and have no need to apologize because they are so good." Is that what you're looking for? You look foolish, and in your quest to seem better than everyone, you actually look like a judgemental dick who leaves no room for redemption. Forgiveness isn't a "wrong." It's what allows for growth, closure on difficult ordeals, and healthy human connection. If your goal was attention, I hope I indulged you. Savor it.

Psych nurse here, l've worked at the emergency psych unit many times. Most of the patients are off the streets experiencing psychosis. Once we stabalize them and get to know a little bit of their Why they eneded up this way..its truly heart breaking.😢😢MAJORITY suffered from CSA. It angers me so much that people are capable of hurting these little souls. I believe had they never experienced such abuse, they'd be pretty normal people with average problems like most of us...this type of abuse just does something to the soul that is very hard to recover from.🥺🥺🥺l hope David knows he was a victim. We are with you David, speak your truth. We are rooting for you and all those little souls that experienced this.

[@sarahalderman3126]

Yes, I am also a nurse (ER/ICU/Trauma) and a victim of CSA as well and I agree wholeheartedly. However I do also believe that our children need to be protected from these disturbed people. It does seem that a significant number of boys who experience CSA go on to become predators, whereas women who experience it go on to suffer from BPD and rarely end up as predators. Likely due to some innate differences between men and women. Regardless it is far past time to acknowledge the fact that we should be removing these people from society until we determine that they are not a threat to our children.

[@Mtz2604]

As a psych patient, thank you so much for the work you do. I have a few comorbid conditions and I've been hospitalized 3 times. Every time nurses made a huge difference. When a kind, empathetic and professional nurse takes care of us is incredibly healing, we don't feel humiliated or like a burden. Psych nurses inspired me to study in nurse school and hopefully specialize myself in psychiatry. I want to help as I've been helped. In my second hospitalization, I had a mate that was a guy, he was SAed with his little brother by his uncle or dad (I can't recall exactly). They forced him to perform acts to his little brother also, his brother never forgave him, nor he could forgive himself. He has BPD (me too, that made us share a lot of experiences) and other psych conditions, but he was being treated also to recover from the withdrawal from the substances he used. I was there for a big relapse with my MDD. A chill guy, older than me, attractive but you could see how the streets treated him. I cried a lot with him. I hope he's doing well.

Wow not even 10 seconds in and I'm feeling the tears flooding my eyes.... Interviews like this, really make me want to do something different with my life so I can help people.... I was an addict for over 20 years and was in and out of the penitentiary system.... It took me losing my baby brother to an overdose to snap out of it.... Life is so fragile and precious.... Be kind to the children, because they grow up broken if they didn't have love growing up.

One thing I love about these interviews is it shows that these people never really had a fair shake in life everything starts in childhood I hope bro works thru his pain

2:24 this broke me! From one csa survivor to another, I felt the pain the moment his eyes welled up 😢 I hope you’ve found healing or some kind of help to deal with this pain. It’s awful. My story’s messed up but I’m still here… I’m glad you are too ❤ keep fighting the good fight. Stay safe. Stay strong ❤

You're a sick woman

[@cathypaynejones5336]

This world is so sick. It really is. Why can’t we protect children? Why?????

[@Laoriginal718]

Because the ones that are supposed to protect them are predators in sheep’s clothing.

The truth is that anyone with the power to even come close to helping keep kids safe in a bug scale doesn't give a shit. They don't care and more than that, many of those powerful people are doing the abusing and worse. Parents are supposed to protect their kids. Not all parents do, not all parents love their kids.

"Everybody else was fake love" Damn! Definitely my family, I needed that. Thankyou David. Your story is saving lives
