Children and Abuse

Children and Abuse. 

Child abuse and Molestation is fast becoming a menace in our society. We've had cases of fathers abusing their daughters, mothers abusing their sons, uncles abusing wards in their care, trusted family members abusing people's children, stewards abusing their masters children and the most annoying are infants that are being abused and molested by old men. I listened to a radio program some two weeks ago and a devastated grandmum was crying like a baby on air. Guess what! Her four year old daughter was molested by a neighbor's houseboy! I could feel the anguish in her voice as she explained what just happened to her little grand daugter. Most times, these cases are not reported just to shield the victims and usually, when they are reported, the authorities treat such cases with levity. This is fast becoming a serious menace.This trend is so annoying and it is an issue that I think if more light is shed on, we would be on our guard at all times and get our young ones protected from these wolves in human skins. What's your opinion on this topic? And what do you think parents that find themselves in such predicament should do? And what are the safety measures all of us must imbibe to protect our household from dangerous people? Please kindly share your opinion by sending me a mail on sophistiquebeau
