Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
One in 10 girls sexually abused, says UN report
A shocking report by the Unicef, the children's agency of the UN. It seems much larger number of children is exposed to dangers such as bullying, physical punishment, cyber-victimization and even sexual violence. No such data has ever been collected from this many countries, as many as 190, compiled and disclosed before.
Another surprising aspect is that such harmful acts seem to take place where children are supposedly safe, like their homes, schools and communities, which could suggest their care givers, family members, teachers, neighbors, and other children are the offenders.
Read and learn about this shocking UN report about child abuse.
