    Children who are abused often blame themselves for the abuse occurring.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Children who are abused often blame themselves for the abuse occurring because they may feel responsible for the actions of their abuser or believe that they have done something wrong to deserve the abuse. This self-blame can stem from feelings of guilt, shame, and low self-esteem that are commonly experienced by victims of abuse. It is important to provide support and reassurance to abused children, helping them understand that they are not to blame for the abuse and that they deserve love and protection.

    Letting a child watch pornographic films is considered a form of sexual abuse. Exposing a child to explicit sexual content at a young age can have serious psychological and emotional consequences, as it violates their innocence, boundaries, and can lead to confusion, trauma, and long-term negative effects on their sexual development. It is important to protect children from such harmful exposure and provide them with a safe and nurturing environment.

    Are disabled children more likely to suffer child abuse?

    • YES

    • NO

    Correct Answer
    A. YES
    Explanation
    Disabled children are more likely to suffer child abuse due to various factors. They may be perceived as vulnerable and less able to defend themselves, making them easy targets for abusers. Additionally, their disabilities may make it harder for them to communicate or report abuse, allowing it to go unnoticed or unreported. The power dynamics between disabled children and their caregivers or abusers can also contribute to increased risk. These factors highlight the importance of raising awareness, providing support, and implementing protective measures to prevent child abuse among disabled children.
