Abuse is abuse, wow. Please do not procreate and if you already have I hope your children are being raised by someone with some sense.

Haha. He says to embrace the policy that says he as a male is deemed a pedophile upon arrival.
So therefore he is agreeing that in fact he is a pedophile.

The part where apparently you think rape is equal to beating a child.

I did noy say nor imply that
Your interpretation of abuse is where the problem resides. But you are not alone.
You really should research abuse and all the things that constitute it. You will be very surprised at what you find.

Oh wait, no, I am wrong. My example actually makes you look a little better. What you actually implied was that any emotional issues a child may face as a result of a custody battle is as severe as sexually abusing a child. You said abuse is abuse, thus implying all abuse is equal. What constitutes abuse is irrelevant because im talking about a very specific type of abuse that there is zero grey area for. You are talking about perceived abuse which holds no water unless a child sees a psychologist. So even if the definition of abuse is up for discussion, your end has the problems, not mine.

It just is. Severity is determined by the adults.
Whilst the law says molestation is worse than custody trauma,in the childs eyes it may in fact be the same emotional outcome for the child
Of course molestation is a very serious and disgusting invasion, the child may not be able to rationalise it until they realise through adult intervention that it is bad.
So as a father and a person who respects other people, any form of abuse is wrongn regardless of the severity
I trust this Post clears that up and I am sorry for the confusion

No sir, not at all. You are only thinking about the repercussions it would have on the child now. People do not magically forget abuse after they grow up, in most cases it severely affects them for the rest of their lives if there is no intervention through counseling. A child witnessing a custody battle and maybe having a parent ripped away from them as a result will experience some trauma. But the long term effects of that memory will be less severe, especially if they are able to reconcile the situation with both parents later in life, than it will be for someone who was sexually abused. That type of violation takes a toll, mentally and emotionally, its really hard for them to form normal healthy relationships later in life. That's with counseling.
