Divided Memories Part 2
Share
Part 2 looks at the effects that remembered abuse has had on the families involved and explores how we distinguish real memories from those which are not true. ‘We know that sexual abuse is a real problem,’ says Bikel. ‘But when the memories are not real, what makes the ‘victim’ so ready to believe they are? What cultural forces have made the explanation of sexual abuse so easy to accept?’
