There is a fairly prominent Dr of theology who works for Word on Fire that talks a ton about his wife and “his kids”. He used to be my parochial vicar. And his wife is divorced. The kids are hers with her ex-husband. She was a friend of mine and one of his parishioners. Never a peep about that in his speeches, books, interviews, or bios. It’s scandalizing to everyone. And it’s shameful.

One question I keep asking myself is, what are women doing with Priests that get them in these situations? You attend Mass, go home. What else do you have to do with the Priest? Don't these women have families? If they do, don't they have men in their families? What are you doing or asking of a Priest that the men in your family can't do for you?

Please with your experience on this matter, help me answer this question: what are women doing with Priests that get them in these situations? They are usually not random people but people he already knows. So please help me understand what relations they have with the Priest who's a stranger to them outside church stuff.
