child abuse is hard to detect. just becauce children are unable to say what is happening behind the scenes does not mean it does not exist. We must be the voice for children who cannot speak out for them selves. children really are the future and they need to be protected by all means, the abuse they suffer is not just a short term incident it can affect them phsically and mentaly.The government should be doing more tro help combat child abuse and put a stopo to it .
