Marilyn admits staying married to her husband after she found out he molested her two sons.
Oprah: Do you take offense at me saying you chose the molester [over your children]?
Marilyn: Yes. I know that my choices—a lot of people will question them, but they weren't in my shoes.
Oprah: I want you to explain it because we have no right to judge you—you're right—because we're not in your shoes. But as I said earlier, the only reason I'm doing this show is for all the woman who are in your shoes—who are there, who choose to believe when their spouses, their boyfriends, their mates, their husbands, the father of their children, the stepfather to their children—when they see the signs or have found out that their children are being molested, and they stay in the relationship because they believe that the molester can be cured.
