Sexual abuse on children.

What is really the cause of this abuse on children?

Mental illness, pretty much pedophilia: sexual attraction to children (both male and female). And a lack of control over those impulses, which ultimately lead those sick individuals to act on their urges and abuse children who have not even gone through puberty.

Ironically, most of people who suffer from those attractions and do not want to abuse children won't try to get psychological help due to the high stigma there is on society against pedophiles.

If they understand they have a problem and it is something abnormal, then they should be guided to get psychological and psychiatric assistance, so they won't abuse children in the future.
On the other hand, those who had already abused children should be either locked up or chemically castrated.

Many abusers were abused when they were children, so the cycle keeps going on. Usually, it's someone from the own family who perpetrates the abuses. Sometimes other family members know and remain in silence, allowing it to happen, and sometimes the story is only discovered later, when the child has already become an adult and starts speaking out about it.

There is an impression the number of cases are increasing these days, but I also suspect it's just harder to keep it in secret nowadays compared to past decades. Moreover, I believe one of the greatest reasons behind the chaos this world is living nowadays regards social interactions, increasement of hostility between people, inability to set genuine bonds, is related to abuses against children.

"but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea" - Matthew 18:6

What is really the cause of this abuse on children?

I think there is no single reason behind child sexual abuse. If you notice, you will clearly understand that in most cases it comes from the abuse of power and the mentality of control, we would be wrong if we said only sexual desire. For example, a few days ago, the issue of child sexual abuse was quite discussed in the governments of 4 countries, including the incumbent Trump. Again, in some cases, paraphilic disorders may be involved, but I also think and believe that not all perpetrators are mentally ill. Many commit crimes consciously and know that it is wrong. The main thing is the lack of opportunity and accountability. The perpetrator feels safest when the victim cannot tell anyone due to fear and shame.

The most important thing is that parents should be able to teach children to avoid people they don't know, especially if there is someone who offers the lure of gifts or whatever it is, children should be suspicious, at least that is what is instilled in our children so that they can avoid pedophile predators.

That can work too. But most of the cases I’ve come across, it’s never strangers who are found in this atrocious act but people we let into our homes, people we are willing to trust with our kids. Some of these people could be family friends, neighbors, I’ve even seen a case that it was a close relative, so parents also have a great part to play in protecting their kids from falling prey to these predators. Parents should be extremely cautious about people they trust with their girl children, if possible don’t even leave them.

I have seen this news where neighbors, close relatives, or from other families become pedophiles, this has become a problem and a threat at least we really have to be careful not to trust anyone too much even though you think you are good at them we don't know how their true nature is.
Girls should also be able to keep their appearance more covered because even if sexy clothes can invite the pedophile's passion.

There are people whose mindset has been made to defile children, their blood is built with pedophile, which I consider to be more of spiritual than physical as many may sees them. How do you justify issue of this where a neighbor whose children goes the same school is ask to pick his neighbor daughter along with his children uses this opportunity to defile his neighbor daughter like the case I have seen around my residence, the truth is that many people are possessed by the demon they engaged on for power or money the world is changing parents must be careful and avoid trusting neighbors in handling their children mostly female gender even the male is not hundred percent free most female adult do same in defiling the male just that they are not pounced like how female gender circulated.

Another one that always surprises me are homosexuality and same sex wedding. How is their body able to move and get aroused.

This is a different topic on its own because they are adults and choose that life for themselves. I know it looks abnormal but we can't judge them.

As per child abuse, I don't think that there's any excuse for such actions because it's a taboo and an abomination to mankind. Parents should educate their female children about this and pray to God so that their children shouldn't become a victim to sex abuse. It's already a big offense by the law.

Porn addiction is the major reason for many rap incidents and child abuse we often hear from all over the world.
The world is changing gradually and the things we where obsessed with before now are what many people sees as a normal life style in the present time.
Drugs are other causes of the sexual abuse with under aged children, and it is increasing the more and the government are taking this matter lightly.

Yes I agree to that if there is then is should be made known so parents can make correction on that, all I see is just nothing but stupidity because if not for stupidity what else do you think can make a grown man or woman lost of a small child that has nothing. Yes I will say is based on abuse of power and mental illness because if not for mental illness especially what do you think can get a mature human attracted to the body of a child when corruption has made everything easy that one can even other both men and women online as if they are goods and services.

Such a sad issue indeed. A very delicate matter.

People do not become Pedophiles due to substance abuse.   They start abusing substances to deal with their mental illness.

Homosexuality exists in nature, but pedophilia does not.

I agree that substance abuse can't lead to pedophilia, or at least it's not proven scientifically.

Animals can be impregnated long before they finish growing. A cat is considered a kitten at 4 months old, but still it's normal for them to have sex at that age and give birth. Animals don't wait to grow up to become parents.

Let's tell the difference now. Humans and dolphins are the only animals in this planet that have sex for pleasure and not only in order to reproduce.

So, even if it's common in the animal world to have sex at very young ages, "pedophilia" indeed doesn't exist in nature. "Pedophilia" derives from the words "pedo" and "philia" which mean "kid" and "friend" in greek.

Pedophilia is not the act of having sex at young ages in order to reproduce. It's a disgusting behaviour where a fully-grown human is sexually attracted by a kid, seeking only pleasure from the sexual intercourse.

I'm saying this, because some convicted pedophiles claim that nature "allows" young under-age people to have sex.

Are there official scientific papers that prove that pedophilia is a mental disorder? I mean it feels like it, but is there official research that proves that pedophilia is a disorder and not something else?

There is always a reason people orchestrate these crimes with respect to their environments and their desires. Some are for sexual desires, others are for ritual activities which I believe is the case with Trump and some powerful men exposed in the files. See how nothing was done about it and the world resumed it's activities and it is to show you that the crimes stems from top places, same reason it is not really given the attention it deserves since even those who should fight it are all accomplices.

May God protect our children

I don't think it's normal, or that it should be normal.

It's never normal but the news that we hear about this kind of case becomes normal. These predators need to be charged so badly that they have to be punished to realize what they did is wrong in an absolute level. Social media I think also becomes a playground of these predators because of the contents that are being normalize like dancing at a young age, a seductive dance that shouldn't be allowed by these platforms.

You can't restrict social media from showing children activities because we don't have a commun definition of the concept "seduction". Predators are with different cultures and different mindsets. Some of them are seduced by just see a young girl wearing a nice dress or a noy with beautiful eyes. We can't blame the victim and limit his freedom as a human being just to ignore those ill persons.

I think there is no better solution than applying the maximum penalties to child abusers and not allowing them mitigating circumstances at any stage of the trial.

Lately, I've been seeing countries that are starting to restrict the usage of social media for specific ages like below the legal age. So, teenagers won't be allowed to use it like in the countries of Australia and I think Malaysia/Indonesia(CMIIW). Because not just with these predators that they're dealing with but also, the pressure that's being done by being too exposed to these platforms.

It reminds me an argument I had some time ago with someone who followed Islam and I mentioned to them that there are many people who considered Muhammed to be a pedophile for marrying a nine year old little girl.
Back in his time, it was considered to be a normal thing to have a grown up man in Arabia to have sex with little girls. There was no concept of pedophilia.

Thankfully, today our society is different and such behavior would be considered to be unacceptable, but it is a good example on how societal morals have changed through time.

I don't wanna comment about religions because it's a very important matter for some people. But definitely, if the religion approves and suggests such violent behaviours against children, then some things should be reconsidered.

Every day I hear news about sexual abuse on children and it is becoming common this days and people really don’t talk much about it.
I really don’t understand why an adult will choose to abuse a child sexually, is it that the adult has a mental disorder or they are enjoy having sex with children, there was a video I saw online that made me decide to create this thread in that video a grown up woman was making out with a boy of 11 years old and I was asking my self is it that she don’t have grown up men around her that can have sex with her or she don’t have money to purchase sex toy or is she mentally unstable. I also see videos of men doing same thing to little female kids.

Sexual abuse is not without cause. As parents ensure your female children are dressed in a decent way, and also ensure you monitor and control the type of friends that your female children associate with.
Don't give out your female children as house maid or people that are irresponsible, they will give out your daughter to men and abuse them sexually. When you have female children, ensure you provide their needs, and teach them the implications of following men around.
In addition to this, the community where we find ourselves can also help, there are places where the communities will give law against sexual harassment and who ever is caught will be health with meticulously.

[Sulegzy39]

Each single day, I hear stories of sexual abuse against minors, which is growing more widespread these days, and people don't say much about it. I truly don't understand why an adult would choose to harm a child sexually. Is it because the adult has a mental illness or they prefer having sex with children? Sexual abuse is not without reason. As parents, make sure your female children are dressed appropriately, and watch and manage the kind of individuals they associate with. Don't offer your female children to housekeepers or irresponsible persons; they will give your daughter to guys and sexually abuse them. When you have female children, make sure you meet their needs and educate them the consequences of following guys around.

This is a really serious issue. Sadly it still happens in many places and a lot of cases probably go unreported because victims are afraid to speak up. 

The most important thing is that children have safe people they can talk to and that communities take these situations seriously. Anyone who suspects something like this should report it so the child can get help.

Bitcoin has a mining algorithm that was never designed to advance science. But nobody here seems to realize that this is a problem because here people are messed up because of something like crystal meth. If the people here are way too fucked up to realize this, they are probably fucked up in many other ways too. Most of the people here probably sexually abuse kids.

There are some humanoid animals who look at children with their ferocious eyes and pounce on them like hyenas. If you scroll through the news feed, you will often see news where children are physically abused by various humanoid animals. They do not think twice about doing such things to a seven-year-old girl, an 8-year-old girl or a 9-year-old girl and they do such things and then kill that girl. Maybe the punishments given for all these crimes are not appropriate punishments, that is why such heinous incidents keep happening again and again. If the law was strict on this issue, then maybe this crime would have reduced quickly. Girls are not safe from anyone now, at an age when children can play and have fun, they are being subjected to such abuse, due to which they have to live with the stigma for the rest of their lives and they cannot recover mentally from that young age.

Some how plenty people will only think of it one side, men sexing girl children. Altogether these could be mental health challenges but some adults male and female had similar experience as child.
Some men make little girl to think sex, but if you look at some cases of men sexing a little girl, it's the girl who actually made such move and the man only didn't control himself, however it still remains an abuse and when seen in such act I guess that becomes a rap.

As for woman with a little boy, she would definitely be the initiator because it's easier for a man on girl than boy on woman

[Tetu100]

In my country, some people use it for ritual for money.

Yes it is very common in my country too and it most cases they will kill the victim afterwards and cut off the part required for their rituals purposes and dump the victim body along the run side for their family to locate it, so sad.

Death supposed to be the capital punishment for it.

In my country death sentence is only pronounced when the victim lose her life at the process otherwise the outstanding punishment for that crime is life imprisonment, which is not even enough for such act.

Another one that always surprises me are homosexuality and same sex wedding. How is their body able to move and get aroused.

This are act that's been controlled by evil and demonic spirit, because I see no pleasure in that for someone with his right frame of mind doing such, is so crazy and barbaric. It would have make more sense if it was actually signed into law as a crime and the defaulters should be punished heavily, at least this will put more fear in them and erase the act completely from the society.

[Nothingtodo]

The most heinous crime in the world is child abuse and it certainly involves some of the world's elite. Looking at the Epstein file, it is completely clear where the world's most popular celebrities are torturing and sexually abusing children in this way.

Those who claim to be civil society, yet they are the ones who abuse children and sexually abuse children. So who will you make aware of this issue? Those who will remain as idols in this world are the ones who are the terror of children.

[NewRevelation]

Please don't use the word as if they have mental problems on any adult that abuses children sexually because which man or woman with his right senses will drive pleasure in having an affair with children knowing fully well they are not matured for it. People with such wicked thought in them don't deserve to go on pushed because they can never have a thing positive with them if not for how to get destructive to children in the society

These set of persons are called pedophiles, and if you look up the word, you’ll notice that this is actually a psychological disorder called pedophilia. So yeah this is actually mental disorder, because no one on his right senses would actually feel sexually attracted to children (mostly below the age of 13) to the extent that they’ll even go as far as going to assault them, it’s just unlikely, and people who are found in such act should to a psychologist, but mind you, that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t face the wrath of the law for such an outrageous crime.

And that's where the problem really lies. In a world where criminals go unpunished, in a world where does of evil do not receive equal or even more in return of the evil they did, how then do they cub this societal menace.  Previously in line of the post, Charles Tim said it's a capital punishment that they deserve for such wilderness, and thats just it. Death sentence should be a simple but quick and hot reply for any culprit of such crime, maybe, some will refrain from such plans and wickedness.
