Pope Francis’
committee of advisers on protecting children from sexually abusive
priests is expanding its workload to include the needs and rights of
children fathered by Roman Catholic priests.
Committee members told the Associated Press on Sunday that a working group is looking into developing guidelines that can be used by dioceses around the world to ensure that children born to priests are adequately cared for. “It’s a horrendous problem in many cultures, and it’s not something that is readily talked about,” commission member Dr. Krysten Winter-Green said.
