Could we ever really have prevented it though? Like we could talk all we want about how things MIGHT have been different if we did something different but we will never know if things would have been different or exactly the same because we can't predict the future or redo the past and see what happens. There are so many variables. So it's actually just pointless to try to think of how we could have changed the situation (or blame the victim) bc abusers are going to abuse.
