Child abuse has significantly increased online.
Sexual abuse against children is now on the increase, despite all efforts by the police and organizations fighting against this heinous crime.
It is sad to note that adults who are supposed to help and protect children are those responsible. According to 'Child Focus,' an organization protecting children in Belgium, last year alone, 513 sexual abuse cases were reported against underage children.
For the victims of sexual abuse to come forward and tell their stories, "Child Focus" has introduced a 'chart-channel' to persuade them. According to the report, most of the cases against the victims come from the surroundings of the victim.
"It is very good that children remain confident in their environment to come forward. At the same time, we want to offer a solution to victims who have hidden their secret to be confident and come forward, also to speak," explains Mr. Dirk Depover, the spokesman for "Child Focus."
The meaning of the 'chart-channel' is for the consultants to create a dialogue with the young people to see where and how the victim can get assistance in their environment, or in any way to follow judicial procedures. Mr. Depover explains further.
In many cases, adult sex offenders, after serving their jail terms, come out to repeat this same offense. These people have no shame. They are extremely dangerous to society, and when caught and found guilty, they must be caged for life.
