Not surprised. #AlyRaisman said something interesting on @TheView. Which was many girls didn't know any different so though they collectively thought what #Nassar was doing made them uncomfortable, they still thought #USAGymnastics & #Olympics wouldn't do anything to bring harm.

This tells me how confused many young people are about where the lines of appropriate conduct needs to be. Given the rise of sexual exploitation in our culture (much of it created by
#Hollywood &#TV) there needs to be more clarity and a reduction of what brings harm to people. -
So I imagine many of the parents felt the same way. It would have been near impossible to believe that America's best athletes would be abused for decades while everyone with power over them looked the other way.

On a very basic level they should feel guilty. As a parent they failed to protect their daughter from this predator.

How about the parents whose daughters told them about it but they wanted a gold medal more than they wanted to believe her?

I must admit I didn’t watch, hear, or read much of this. I stopped after I heard one of the victims say “ my mother didn’t believe me”

I am not blaming the parents but I wonder if they are equally a type as their kids. Predators usually look for victims with specific conditions. I submit that parents who push their kids to function at elite levels have like vulnerabilities that may contribute to the issue.

How horrible. The only thing they can do now is say they’re sorry to their children and pray forgiveness is possible. They failed them as protecting them when younger but they were not alone in the failure.

I'm terrified of this happening as we speak in this sport. Children must be seriously talked to about this and reassured no matter what they will be believed!
