The issue is that the catholic church covered up the abuse, and in some cases even moved offending priests to other parishes where they continued to abuse children.

Protestant churches also engaged in cover-ups, for example the Southern Baptists:

Yes; school districts and teachers unions do this as well sometimes. It's an institutional problem, and a difficult institutional problem to solve. Just about every institution that works with children has dealt with the same problem--this famously bankrupted the Boy Scouts of America, for instance. And statistically, the Catholic Church has done a better job than most institutions.

No, the issue is it happens at all. Just because others are worse changes nothing.
