Right.

This is not a Christian thing.

It's an adult thing.

.

And the Christian thing is compassion. Idiot compassion is not good, but merely taking the stance of 'you made your bed, lie in it,' may have a sort of liberating effect on he who utters it, but if such a woman gets tossed out on the street, society incurs other costs. Not saying free checks every week is the answer, it's not good for people and we can't afford it anyway.

The answers are not easy to come by but merely saying 'you should have thought of that before' is not really an answer.

Actually holding people, generation after generation responsible for their actions is in everyone's best interest.

The first thing that is developed in counseling, healing is learning and accepting the consequences of one's actions.

This pablum, brought to a whole new level of absurdity in the '60s, of, "aw, don't worry about it, we'll fix it" is highly corrosive.

It's probable that the woman in question, her parents/grandparents, community all failed and everyone had a way to 'justify' their actions.
