keep children away from harm!

Child abuse is not easy to be found, which is mainly due to children's own age, mental immaturity and physical condition. No matter physically or psychologically, they can't respond in time when they are hurt, and many people have no ability or consciousness to appeal to the outside world.

From the perspective of human nature, a weak and young child will always only desire one thing, that is, to be loved and accepted by his parents, who are the most authoritative and precious beings in the world in the child's completely immature cognitive system.

Therefore, when parents beat, abuse or hurt their children, in the child's inner subconscious, he will unconsciously excuse and explain his parents' behavior, even if it is abusive behavior.

Children who have been abused, when you have the opportunity to see this place, you must know that it is not your fault to be abused. You don't need to find reasons for the abusers, so don't blame yourself. When you have the opportunity to grow up, you should learn more knowledge, protect yourself better and heal yourself better.

It is the responsibility of society to provide more effective remedies for children trapped in abuse.

Without these help, these abused children will develop many social problems, some of which may cause greater harm to themselves and society. Time will not heal all wounds, speak for children, and don't let more children get hurt.
