10 Facts About Child on Child Sexual Abuse | Mental Health 101 | Kati Morton

Описание: Today we are going to talk about child on child sexual abuse, because it's not often talked about and there are so many issues and misconceptions out there, which is why today I want to offer 10 MUST KNOW FACTS, from shame, to abuse cycles, and trauma, to parental response and so much more. And really quickly on the topic of trauma I want to remind you all that my new book Traumatized is available now, in it I talk about what trauma is, how it can feel, and of course, how we can heal. You can order your copy today by clicking the link in the description or find it wherever books are sold.

Unfortunately, children abuse other children. This could be because they themselves are being sexually abused by someone, or have viewed sexually explicit materials and are acting out what they saw. This isn't commonly talked about because it can be hard to imagine it happening, and even harder to view a child as a perpetrator. But it is common, and therefore it's important that we discuss it, which is why I am going to explain the 10 must know facts about it, so let's get into it.

This video will cover child on child abuse, sexual abuse for children, child abuse therapy, what is child abuse, child abuse help, sexual abuse support for kids, what is sexual abuse, childhood trauma, childhood ptsd, ptsd and much more.
