[quote]What about the ‘sexual abuse’ aspect of child maltreatment? Surely that’s a much clearer category, with no room for sweeping interpretations? You’d be surprised. The NSPCC’s definition of child sexual abuse includes both ‘contact abuse’ (fondling through to rape) and ‘non-contact abuse’ (showing a child pictures, speaking to them in a sexual manner, and so on). Even more strikingly, it includes interaction between children as well as between an adult and a child. As Child Abuse and Neglect in the UK Today says, ‘Sexual abuse includes contact and non contact by any adult or peer perpetrator’. Judging by the NSPCC’s survey questions, it can potentially even include consensual sex by over-16s. So one question asks, ‘At any time in your life, before you were 18, did you do sexual things with anyone 18 or older, even things you wanted?’ For a great many people, the answer to this will be yes - lots of 16- and 17-year-olds, who are above the age of consent, have sex with 19- or 20-year-olds or even older people. Yet in the NSPCC’s survey, this is put under the heading ‘sexual victimisation’. [/quote][/quote]

Hedda	amazing what they now call 'abuse'. It really is scandalous.
Hedda	this is what it leads to: Hugging ban gives Bunbury school unwanted national attention A school in WA's South West has gained national attention after a Year 6 student was given detention for hugging her friend goodbye. Amber Ablett, a student at Adam Road Primary School in Bunbury received the punishment because the school had a no-hugging policy in place. Mother Heidi Rome said she was "dumbfounded" by the decision to reprimand her daughter's actions which saw her receive a recess detention. www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/hugging-ban-g...-20121102-28onq.html
