My father reckons there was just as much kiddy fiddlin' when he was young (not that he was a victim) as there is now, if not more.
It was just that people didn't talk about it, wives didn't believe it, and kids didn't have a voice. ____________________ My claim to fame: Austin Vince nicked my pen... |

You know I've often thought the same thing,, does it really go on anymore than it used to? Back then we didn't have newspapers and internet media with which to scream "paedophile" from the proverbial rooftop. Sure, the internet has given access to more unfavourable material, yet the ability to trace, hunt down and convict is bigger than it's ever been. I think anything back then if a child raised their voice they'd probably be on the recieving end of a backhander for telling tales.
