Why do they need to do this to their own children?

My mother was into mental and emotional abuse. She didn't get that from her mom that's for sure.

The story that Sharon, who is now 40, has been unable to tell before today is 
  one that few would wish to hear: from as far back as she can remember until 
  the day she left home at the age of 16, Sharon, an only child, was sexually 
  abused by her mother. The particulars of her abuse are too horrific to bear 
  repeating in detail; this was sustained sexual violence, which she suffered 
  silently at the hands of the one person who was supposed to love and protect 
  her above all others.

While researching this piece, I spoke to a number of adults – men and women – 
  who as children endured horrific sexual abuse at the hands of their mothers, 
  aunts, grandmothers and female carers. Very few of them had ever had a 
  chance to tell their story before, and the effect of keeping their 
  experiences to themselves for so long has had a disastrous effect on their 
  mental state.
