ABSTRACT:
Child abuse can have severe and long-lasting consequences for the physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of the child. These consequences may manifest immediately or in the long term and can impact a child's development, mental health, and relationships. It is essential to recognize the signs of child abuse and report any suspected cases to the appropriate authorities. The welfare and safety of children should be a top priority for society, and intervention is crucial to protect vulnerable children and provide them with the support they need. Education, awareness, and prevention strategies play a vital role in mitigating the prevalence of child sexual abuse.
