CHILD ABUSE AT 'FRIGHTENING' LEVELS

CHILD abuse and neglect has reached critical proportions in Australia, according to a children's charity.
The National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse & Neglect (NAPCAN Foundation) says every indicator of the problem has worsened each year for the past six years.
CEO Adam Blakester has said it's difficult to put an exact figure on the number of abuse cases across Australia.
After studying a number of indicators including reports made to state government departments and the number of children in out-of-school care, Mr Blakester said there was no doubt abuse and neglect was on the rise.
Mr Blakester said it was frightening to realise there had been a quarter of a million reports of child abuse in the past decade and at least 40,000 cases of child abuse substantiated.
"Child abuse is the seed which grows into a whole range of negative social outcomes and of course there's always a possibility that it will become inter-generational as well."
Mr Blakester has said the Federal Government should put extra effort into prevention of child abuse and neglect in the lead-up to national child protection week, which starts on Sunday.

Study Reveals Abuse Legacy

WOMEN who have been sexually abused as children are more likely to harm themselves and suffer panic disorders for the rest of their lives.
Research from the Black Dog Institute in Sydney found childhood sexual abuse was also an important risk factor for women with depression.
Other results from the study- involving 125 women with depressive disorders- showed only 11 participants had received counselling or therapy to address the abuse.
It also found parental conflict at home left children vulnerable to sexual abuse outside the home.
