Not to undermine the point being made here, but I keep thinking about the future of those kids. Sure, those guys should be punished. But after that, how can the children be rehabilitated? Are they going to be lost in the cracks? Can we really hope that our societal systems can handle it appropriately?

Even aside from damage/trauma, these children have been taught things about how a family functions that are not socially acceptable, and can potentially perpetuate the problems they were trapped in. Where can they learn the proper function of family? Just pray they get adopted by normal people next?

I realize we can't save every child, as a society, and that the attempt can backfire really hard, but when we're faced with such a story, I think it's natural to desire seeing those kids' lives turn around. And the idea that we might not be able to do anything to help is very unpleasant.

I have no solutions, it's just something I have been thinking about.
