    A major issue I have with Freud , is that he used his gifts and talents to help cover up and deny childhood sexual abuse he discovered in many of his patients. At first he supported their assertions. Then spent the rest of his life making a theoretical framework that denied rape was common.

    Some people have speculated this turn of events happened after he started to sexually assault his young son.
