http://www.newburyportnews.com/local/x1275139594/Brown-reveals-he-was-sexually-abused-as-childHis dad said, through his current wife, that Scott wants all questions he is asked referred to Scott. His dad was on the town council when Scott was very young - Wikipedia spoke of Scott carrying a sign for his dad in the mid 60s - which is would have made him about 6 years old. What I don't get in the stories is why if his dad was a town councilor, you would think that he would have paid enough child support that Scott Brown would have had more food in the house than he spoke of. The other question is why after Scott was beaten even once by a step dad, his father did not get custody. (I'm not questioning Brown's honesty - no one has disputed what he said and he has said much of this before - I am questioning the system where an unfit mother kept custody. (Letting her son be beaten by two stepdads is unfit.)
