Report: Man fathered four with daughter
September 17, 2009

(CNN) -- An Australian man has been arrested for allegedly fathering four children with a daughter he repeatedly raped for more than 30 years, local media reported Thursday.

The man, in his 60s, began the abuse in the 1970s when the daughter was 11 and continued almost daily until 2007, said the Herald Sun newspaper, which first reported the case. The assaults resulted in four children, all with birth defects, the paper said. One later died.

"As a parent, this is just a horrific and appalling story," she said. "Court proceedings and a very broad suppression order make it impossible to go to the specifics of the story," she said. The suspect in the Australia case denied raping his daughter, but was arrested after DNA tests revealed otherwise, the newspaper said.

The alleged victim's mother told the newspaper she was unaware of the abuse, despite living in the same house. "We lived in a big house, so I wouldn't have known," she said.

He raped his daughter daily for 30 years and mom didn't know?

:bs
 
does the fact that this happens shock you Tash?
No... and yes. Although we're all subliminally aware that it does happen, reading an actual account of such depravity shocks the mind and sickens the soul.

incest and child abuse has gone on since biblical times.

Take a Carnival Cruise Ship from Miami to Port Limon in Costa Rica, one of the flourishing child prostitution destinations, not every Pax is a Perv, you just have to look at the male only group bookings ect.

The cruise lines put on added security to protect the children onboard from the Perv's, just google adult holiday's:)

You want to buy a child for labor or prostitution? Just visit Haiti.

American cruise lines do Tash, they own part of the Island its called Labadee, the area is surrounded by a big fence and armed guards, they allow sanitize Haitians in to serve the cruise pax in shops and on the buffet lines, the waste would feed half the ****ing Island, the ships dump there old furniture ect on the Island.

The pax seem unaware or they dont care about the horrors going on on the other side of the fence, my wife and I lasted ten minutes, the stench of hypocrisy was overwhelming.
 
Denial can be pretty strong with some. This does not surprise me in the least. I've worked with clients who were abused/moletsted/raped by one parent, and the other parent was seemingly oblivious. It's amazing what the mind can convince you of in order to not rock your world.
 
In the 80s I had a very close friend who was a very well respected child shrink.

She saw a massive rise in incest cases, they increased with male unemployment caused by the then recession.

The role of bread winner had been reversed with more wives going out to work.

Hmmm...interesting. I haven't seen a rise in instances of incest since the recession, but that does not discount the theory you presented.

I concur, though one case that did make me shudder was of a very violent bully who would return home drunk, and beat then rape his wife, she produced 5 children, two boys and three girls.

The wife then used these children to slake her husband demands.

Self preservation is also a powerful tool.

Don't even get me started with stories. I once had a client who's father would ground her if she didn't allow him to have sex with her (she was 16); her mother would enforce the grounding even though she "claimed" to be unaware of why the father was grounding her.

I had another client who's father "passed her around" to his "friends", a little sub-culture of pedophiles.

There are some disgusting scumbags out there. Sometimes, I wish it was legal to just kill these assholes.

I hope you dont, an example.

The husband was made redundant after 15yrs of proud work, his wife had given up work as a nurse to have two children both girl, she then returned to work to become the bread winner working night shifts.

He lost all pride and motivation, their sexual life finished.

He then started to allow the children into his bed at night.

The abuse started, at no time did he use violent force, in his words he did it lovingly

He was caught because the elder girl (10yrs) asked a friend (13yrs) if her Dad new how to make her tingle.

This next statemen is in know way meant to excuse these acts.

The biggest problem was with the older girl who enjoyed this secret game.

One of the biggest problems I have with counseling victims of sexual abuse, is the shame the abused feels if their body reacted in an "excited" or pleasured way. Helping them to understand that one cannot necessarily control how their body reacts is not easy.

I had a friend who went through that. She was never quite right. Oddly though, she introduced me to a song that was a darkly humorous story of a similar situation. Wonder whatever happened to her.
 
The other thing that interests me, is the number of normal adults of my age and older, who returning from wars (Malaya, Vietnam ect) who seem proud of their use of child prostitutes, yet are horrified if it happens in their own back yard. I wonder why this is:)
