I was watching foxnews the other day and kinda half listened while the talking heads were talking about mark foley and other people molested by clergy or even family members etc etc and then I had a thought or more like a question pop in my head
here it is
how does the sexual abuse of a female child lets say around 7-8 years old affect her family and for how long????
what I am asking is this does the trama caused by the rape pass from one generation to the next??? will her bloodline suffer the consequences of the rape for generations to come.......or does the hurt stop right there???
same with a male of the same age being raped by lets say a stranger wouldnt you agree that in either case that the childs bloodline will be forever poisioned by the acts of the stranger and that the ill affects of the rape on someone who lets say is a grandmother now
affected the way she raised and developed her own kids??? what if the kids were children of the rapist would it be even worse
or once again does the pain stop right there with the person raped at 8??
I ask this question for a reason and will provide the same after I view a see replies

It is proven that many people who were abused go on to become abusers. Can the pain of abuse be spread genetically? Not through the blood or DNA, but it can be passed from generation to generation by action. A girl is raped at a young age and never gets the proper treatment to help her deal with the trauma, or she isn't able to learn to accept it and move on with her life on her own. That trauma can cause her more problems down the road. Eventually she has a kid and since she was abused as a kid she (maybe even unknowingly) abuses her kid. It might not be sexual, but it is abuse so in effect the original rape is now causing pain to the next generation of this family. It is called a cycle of abuse and until someone puts a stop to it, it can go on and on and on.
When I was in high school there was a kid that was abused by his dad. His dad would get drunk and beat him up. The kid said that his grandpa treated his dad the same way. Now it's 20 years later and one of my best friends is a cop in the town I grew up in and guess what, that kid I went to school with is a drunk who beats his kids. So technically his grandfather's abuse has effected three generations.
Abuse, especially at a young age, can have a profound affect on people and can cause them problems and affect their lives forever if they don't find a way to deal with it.
