Child Sexual Abuse Statistics - 0 views

  •  
    The prevalence of child sexual abuse is difficult to determine because it is often not reported; experts agree that the incidence is far greater than what is reported to authorities. CSA is also not uniformly defined, so statistics may vary. Statistics below represent some of the research done on child sexual abuse.

    I have witnessed domestic violence first hand and the devastation it causes. It isn't always physical abuse either. A lot of times it is verbal and manipulative. It is very sad that insecurities and mental issues have such a devastating effect.
  •  
    Domestic violence can be physically, sexually and mentally. Many people now days want to have control of the relationship. When a person is starting to be possessive and controlling is a sign that you are going to be miserable with that person. People are free to do whatever they want to do, think how they want to think. we have to take action. No more domestic violence.
  •  
    I would like to see more of a punishment for cases involving abuse. So many cases slip through, or are not made a priority due to it being such a common issue. It is tragic to think someone can get away with victimizing family members, partners, or even strangers. I also believe substance abuse plays a huge role in why people want to have the upper-hand on others.
  •  
    This is an issue that should not be happening in the world today. It is important that we focus on controlling situations such as this so they stop being so common.
  •  
    People need to be more aware of signs that could possibly be domestic violence. I also think that we should learn more about it as children in school, and even offer ways for young ones to seek help if they're afraid.

    Reading this this article i learn that child trafficking and sexual exploitation in the United States have a really high number of victims. This is a very dangerous business how they called it. Thousand of people will continued suffering because of this crime.
  •  
    This article is so heartbreaking, yet it's so important for the public to be informed on this topic. The fact that most of the child pornography comes from the United States is disgusting and hard to acknowledge, but it's an important fact to understand. So many children are exploited every year, and hopefully, the more people realize this and educate and involve themselves on the subject, the likelihood of children being trafficked and exploited will decrease.
  •  
    This is a very eye opening article. It is tragic to know the United States is the main consumer of child pornography. How can this be so pervasive in our society? What can be done to stop the trafficking of such lurid content? A top priority for our government should be to eradicate child pornography in the U.S.
  •  
    This article is very eye opening to me. We often see children in other countries suffering and we want to find a way to help then. Reading this article I discovered that the united states is the number one consumer and producer for child abuse. This article makes me very aware of the negative things americans do that I was blinded to.
  •  
    I knew sex trafficking is pretty much everywhere to date, but I had no idea that the United States accounts for 50% of it. This article is so sad to read because of the reality of it. There definitely needs to be a solution to all of this, you would think that with today's technology and such that we could figure out how to stop this once and for all.
  •  
    This is a topic that, despite its importance, remains unspoken, which is utterly tragic. It was shocking to read that the United States creates the majority of child pornography seeing as nothing is being done despite having so much power. Although this topic is difficult to discuss due to its ubiquitous and unsettling nature, it needs to be addressed and acted upon in order to be capable of abolishing it. As a country, the United States ought to openly discuss this topic and utilize its unity to end the exploitation of children.
