Child abuse is a crime. Children are young and they get abused. The kids can't really do much about this because most of the time, the offender is someone they know and trust. The offender gets close to the child and then they threaten them not to tell. Most kids feel alone when something like this happens so they don't tell anyone. The kids have to live with this for the rest of their lives because they couldn't get the help they needed when they were young.

The kids not only suffer during the time they were abused but also when they are older. They have impaired lifelong physical & mental health that connects to the social development as well. With child abuse, not only is the child (victim) affected, but the family and friends of the victim are affected as well. They are the ones who have to help the victim get through it, and they're the ones who have to wait for the cops to find the victim if they are taken for a while.
