In his first article (Summit, 1983) he described, among other claims, that the accommodation syndrome consisted of five major components: 1) secrecy; 2) helplessness; 3) entrapment and accommodation; 4) delayed unconvincing disclosure; and 5) recantation.

Love you Sis

You are doing good things here, Mary!! I see a lot of good coming from heightening awareness! I’m willing to bet most people don’t know that there does not need to be ANY evidence what so ever! Most still believe in innocent until proven guilty, however these days it is more like guilty until proven innocent. So happy that you got this up and running. God bless you!
