This document defines child sexual abuse and outlines its characteristics. Child sexual abuse occurs when a more powerful person uses a less powerful child for sexual gratification. There are two categories of abuse - non-touching such as exposure to pornography, and touching such as fondling or intercourse. Abusers often groom their victims gradually to gain their trust before abusing them. Victims may experience physical effects like STIs as well as behavioral effects including depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Children are vulnerable targets because they fear losing love, feeling shame, or being blamed if they report the abuse. Education is key to preventing abuse and empowering children to come forward.

Children's interpretation of the abuse, whether or not they disclose the experience, and how quickly they report it also affects the short- and long-term consequences. Children who are able to confide in a trusted adult and who are believed experience less trauma than children who do not disclose the abuse. Furthermore, children who disclose the abuse soon after its occurrence may be less traumatized than those children who live with the secret for years.
I believe that Learning the facts about childhood sexual abuse helps to prevent it.
Talking about it helps to prevent it.
Getting involved helps to prevent it.

ABSTRACT. According to statistics, about 90% of people were emotionally abused
in childhood, but many do not realize, deny or, worse, abuse their own children or
others, considering that their treatment of childhood was “natural and normal.”
Emotional abuse is a form of aggression, but the law can not penalize it. Most
parents believe that child abuse means physical or sexual violence and / or child
neglect. But they do not know that they can hurt the child simply by their excessive
attitude. The emotional abuse is any behavior that is intended to control, subjugate,
submit other beings through fear, intimidation, humiliation, blaming, and “growing”
guilt, coercion, manipulation, invalidation etc. The consequences of emotional abuse
are multiple, varied, extremely serious; they leave marks for life, affecting child
development at various levels - emotionally, intellectually and even physically.
Moreover, it will affect the future adult’s social and professional life, relationships
and physical and mental health, to a greater or lesser extent, depending on the type
of the emotional abuse, and on its frequency and intensity.
Keywords: behavior, emotional abuse, violence, control, sexual abuse
1. Introduction
Abuse means the use of force in order to try to dominate a child, to compel
him/her to do dangerous things that he/she does not want to do, expose
him/her to hazardous situations or to situations perceived by him/her as
dangerous. Any action that causes injury or psycho-emotional disorders is
an abuse.
The abuse can be of several types:
500
Physical abuse - involves the use of physical force against children and
subjecting them to hard work that exceed their capabilities, actions that
result in damage of their body integrity.
Emotional abuse - is the inappropriate behavior of adults towards
children, behavior that adversely affects a child’s personality in
development. Child rejection, forced isolation, terrorization, ignoration,
humiliation and corruption are manifestations of child abuse.
Sexual abuse - consists in exposing the child to watching pornography,
seduction (advances, caresses and promises) or involvement in sexual acts
of any kind.
Economic abuse – implies attracting, persuading or forcing the child to
do income generating activities, the adults close to the child at least partially
or indirectly benefiting from this revenue. The economic abuse leads to
removing the child from school, thus depriving him of the chance to access
superior social and cultural levels.
Neglection - is the adult’s inability or refusal to appropriately
communicate with the child, and the lim.

This month spotlights bullying behavior and what kids and parents can do to identify it and stop it. We thought this would be timely as the school year begins.
Today, bullying has become much more pervasive and has taken on new methods, tactics and impact that have led, in many cases, to serious physical and mental abuse and even suicide by traumatized victims. The latest bullying statistics should make every parent take notice and take appropriate action with their children and their schools
Please feel free to share with your colleagues, friends and family.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
3. Child sexual abuse is when a more powerful
person uses a less powerful person for sexual
gratification.
ex: When an adult uses a child for his/her
own sexual gratification.
When the offender and the victim are in the
same immediate family, the abuse is called
“incest.”
4.
A sexual act between two minors, where one
exerts power over the other, is also considered
sexual abuse.
5. 2 CATEGORIES OF SEXUAL
ABUSE
1. NON-TOUCHING ABUSES
Exhibitionism,
exposure to pornography, taking
photographs of children in a sexualized manner,
voyeurism, communicating in a sexual way, such
as through telephone or the internet, and letting
down the walls of privacy so that the child
watches or hears sexual acts.
2. TOUCHING ABUSES
Kissing,
fondling, oral sex, vaginal or anal
intercourse, or attempted intercourse.
7. The prevalence of silence among
children is explained by the following
reasons:
•
•
•
•
•
Children are physically less powerful than
adults;
Children are obliged to obey adults;
Children are provided limited information on
matters regarding sex and sexuality;
Children’s questions pertaining to sex and
sexuality are frowned upon;
The importance placed on keeping the family
intact, or preserving the family reputation,
keeps children from speaking about the abuse.
8.
9. Studies show that most abusers of child sexual
abuse are known to victims. They may be a
male relative or an acquaintance. In many
cases, it is the father who violates his own
child.
10.
11. GROOMING PROCESS
Grooming is a subtle, gradual, and escalating
process of building trust with a child. It is
deliberate and purposeful. Abusers may groom
children for weeks, months, or even years—
before any sexual abuse actually takes place.
It usually begins with behaviors that may not
even seem to be inappropriate.
12. Grooming children may include:
Befriending a child and gaining his or her trust.
Testing a child’s boundaries through telling
inappropriate jokes, backrubs, tickling, or sexual
games.
Moving from non-sexual touching to “accidental”
sexual touching. This typically happens during
play so the child may not even identify it as
purposeful, inappropriate touching. It is often done
slowly so the child is gradually desensitized to the
touch.
13.
Manipulating the child to not tell anyone about
what is happening. The abuser may use a
child’s fear, embarrassment, or guilt about
what has happened. Sometimes, the abuser
uses bribery, threats, or coercion.
Confusing the child into feeling responsible for
the abuse. Children may not notice or may
become confused as the contact becomes
increasingly intimate and sexual.
14.
15. PHYSICAL EFFECTS
Sexual Transmitted Infections (STI)
Urinary tract infections
Pregnancy at a young age
Unusual smells or bleeding
Difficulty walking or sitting
Bruises or wounds on the genitalia and mouth.
16. BEHAVIORAL EFFECTS
Distrust of others and themselves
Terror and anxiety
Shame, guilt and self-hatred
Alienation from their bodies
Isolation and withdrawal from people and
activities
Powerlessness, depression, and extreme
passivity
17.
Anger
Obsession with sex or complete aversion to it
Questioning their sexuality and gender
Drug and alcohol use, abuse, and addiction
Eating and sleeping disorders
Perfectionism and work holism
Mental illness and suicide
Sexual offending
22. Children often cannot tell about a
touching problem because of the fear
of:
REMEMBERING
Children often cope with their abuse by
pushing it so far back in their minds that they
“forget”. To remember means to feel hurt
again.
23.
LOSS OF LOVE
Children often worry that their parents or
friends will not love them once they know
about their abuse, because now they are
“dirty.” This is often because children will take
responsibility for their abuse. Children also
often fear separation from their families
because of the telling.
24.
SHAME and GUILT
Children either know or can sense that their
sexual experiences with an adult are wrong. By
telling someone and acknowledging that this
happened, they tend to fear the shame of the
abuse. Older children will experience more sense
of guilt than younger children.
25.
BLAME
Children fear that they will be blamed for
the sexual touches, that they somehow
wanted it. Adults tend to be believed over
children, and offenders often state that the
child “asked” for the sexual touch. Children
ask for affection and attention, which is their
right. However they do not ask for sex, for
which they cannot have the appropriate
context for consent.
26.
HARM
Offender often maintain control over their
victims by threatening harm to them or their
families if they tell. Children are then burdened
with the inappropriate responsibility of keeping
their families safe.
27.
28.
The best way to protect children and youth
against sexual abuse is to give them the
knowledge and skills necessary for their safety
and well being, and by creating in our families and
communities an atmosphere where they feel safe
enough to come forward if they are being
mistreated or abused. Children who know that
they have rights, who are well informed about
inappropriate touching, who are taught to trust
their feelings about situations and people, and
who know where to get help if needed are less
likely to be victims of any type of assault.
