Comment on What kids told us about how to get them off their phonesparent

Comments

Unfortunately it's not a tiny, tiny fraction. I thought this too once then looked up the stats.

It's horrifying when you find out. It's 1 in 20 children get sexually abused in the UK at the moment for example, and we have loads of checks and safe guards.

And waiting until they get sectioned/locked up, that means someone else has to suffer potentially life-long trauma.

That sexual abuse is overwhelmingly from family and trusted family friends, not from strangers.
