This is an essay on Child Sexual Abuse. I have posted the abstract and introduction of the paper.AbstractChild sexual abuse is a global problem with adverse effects. The estimates of CSA vary a lot depending on the country which is studied upon. This research is aimed to disclose how CSA has been a global problem and what has been making it to e spiraling. Relevant data will be extracted to show how CSA has been growing. There are four conditions that are considered during child abuse; physical neglect, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and emotional maltreatment. Child sexual abuse causes serious risk to health and puts children at a risk of sexual victimization.Introduction Child sexual abuse is a type of abusing a child whereby an adult molests a child to get sexual satisfaction. There are several forms of child abuse including indecent exposure of the genitals or female nipples, using children for pornography, engaging in sexual activity with a child either by asking or pressuring the child for the act, oral-genital contact, using a child for prostitution and exposing a child to pornographic content (Brady). CSA can happen either in our homes, schools or workplaces. Marrying a child is also another form of sex abuse and UNICEF claimed that it represents the most widespread manifestation of child sexual abuse and taking advantage of young girls. The WHO defines child sexual abuse as the association of a child in sexual activities that the individual does not completely understand and cannot give informed consent to, or for which the youngster is informatively arranged, or else that disregard the laws or social taboos of society.  [Show Less]
