It's sad the children have been indoctrinated to be so fearful of the church they can't tell anyone about it, not even their parents

They have already admitted it and apologized to at least some of the victims. This isn't even a serious debate anymore. The real debate is, how can they keep doing it now? And how can any parent knowingly expose their children to the dangers of Catholic "education"?

There is nothing to find here, the times where it was possible to have a variety of opinions about this is long gone. Most of it is proven beyond any reasonable doubt, and what is not proven is so because the church does everything possible to cover, hide or obfuscate facts and details wherever possible.
If you are interested, you might want to watch "Spotlight", it is probably telling you all you want to know:

It's been proven. There was a film made about it recently, 'Spotlight' I think it's called.

I think it's pretty well documented that they do protect their pedophiles and pederasts.

The catholic church is rotten to the core. They pass the plate 3-4 times per service, tell you you're not putting enough money into the plate, then refuse to tell you where the money goes or open the books. They rape little boys and nuns . Pregnant nuns are forced to get abortions and the church pays for them. Many priests have child porn on their computers. It's an open secret that priests are raping anything that moves. And the church has placed devout puppets in high places in society to block and make disappear any complaints against priests They have stacked the deck in their favor to hide the truth.

no question, it is concealed, and all the way to the top. Ratsarse was in hot water for knowing and not acting.

And here is your answer

Archbishop found guilty of concealing child sex abuse
Australia's Archbishop Philip Wilson has been convicted of concealing widespread abuse by paedophile priest Kim Fletcher. According to the courts, Wilson wilfully covered up Fletcher's abuses by failing to report the allegations. Wilson's defence argued that his diagnosis of Alzheimer's should have allowed for the case to be dismissed. This despite Wilson's apparent ability to retain his position in the church

I think its wrong to accuse them of molestation call it what it is rampant pedophilia and rape

I think it has been documented enough times that there were coverups. That being said, I also thing the church is attempting to weed out those committing such acts though there are undoubtedly a few still hiding out here and there. Any organization tends to protect itself and its reputation at the risk of hurting those who were victimized. Public knowledge, shone into dark corners, eradicates the hiding places of the guilty and makes it much harder in the future to reoffend.

They've already said that they know and they've hid the facts.
