I grew up poor. We never got to go to the christian summer camp like all our friends. The upside is that we never got sexually assaulted like all our friends.
Public non religious schooling helped. I had sorted things out pretty early on that being alone with any adult was not beneficial. I was a nervous and frightened child and I honestly believe that it saved me on many occasions. My best friend whom I have known since I was four did not have such luck.

You just got lucky. Poor kids get sexually assaulted in the pastor’s private office instead.

Christian terminology for religious leaders is so insulting. A pastor implies that his followers are sheep, incapable of critical thought.
