Question

A family comes to see a social worker in a child welfare agency to discuss family issues.
The father discusses how he was sexually abused by his father. The following is the most
likely situation in this family

A. Sexual abuse in this family
B. Depression in the children
C. Depression in the father
D. A passive mother

Answer

The correct answer is “D” – Sexual abuse in this family. Men who have been sexually abused by
a father are significantly more likely to sexually abuse their own offspring. The question makes
no reference to depression (answers “B” and “C”) in any of the family members or to the
functioning of the mother (answer “D”), which makes those three answers incorrect.
