Some friends went to East Germany years ago to visit a friend. Only upon reaching her place did they realise that her parents were separated and that they were still living together and that her mum's boyfriend lived with them and that her dad's girlfriend lived with them too, in a small apartment. Wow, that's so weird.
My imagination then runs wild: The parents didn't have to fight for custody. Daughter would not grow up a twisted psycho killer due to lack of mother/father love. Everyone contributed to the 'Family'. Mum and dad's girlfriend would later give birth to their own children. The kids would run around and play with each other while their dads would look on them dotingly and resume their discussion on football/politics. They lived happily ever after.
Rewind back to when the eldest daughter was 15. Everyone happened to be out one night except for mum's boyfriend and eldest daughter. Mum's boyfriend asked her into his room and then sexually abused her. This happened repeatedly afterwards, while not a soul knew about it. Eldest daughter kept mum, for fear she would ruin the happiness of her family. Finally eldest daughter couldn't take it anymore and committed suicide and no one knew why.
Ok, I got carried away. Must be too much of those dysfunctional family dramas/films/books. The above is of course fictional but it chills my heart to know such things actually do happen in the place where it's often called home. And more often than not, the victims suffer in silence, simply out of fear or fear of being thrown out of the family when such dark secrets are let out and these twisted culprits come away scot free or if found out, they would be sentenced to a few years in jail and get out in no time to hurt other kids again. I get pissed off whenever I read such news because these bastards belong to nowhere else but in jail.
If I had superpower, I would put all these sick psychos behind bars and never ever ever let them out to roam the streets again.
