Psychiatrists will be helping trainee priests in Belgium to avoid potentially dangerous situations at work. Special “anti-pedophile” training is the new measure to help prevent child abuse by priests.
According to Belgium’s RTL online, psychiatrists will teach aspiring priests “the correct attitude in the presence of a child”.
“The goal of the training? Not to repeat the errors of the past,” Guy Harpigny, Bishop of Tournai told Belgium’s SudInfo daily.
“The challenge is simple: prevention and protection of our young ones,” he added.
