. Knowing that over 90% of CSA is perpetrated by someone the child knows and often loves, it’s essential that protective adults model safe behaviors with children. And, it begs the question - is forced affection truly loving if it is being put upon someone who isn’t ready?
⛔️There are many adult-only activities and behaviors that should not be normalized, enabled, or encouraged for children. We unequivocally consider this to be one of them. ⛔️

Don’t delay educating yourself. Even if you don’t have children, you likely know a parent who hasn’t had the opportunity to understand how serious the risk of abuse is.

@Riley_Gaines_ Most abuse is never reported, so how many cases will this actually apply to? Why not invest in improved prevention education? Most families lack access to information and upwards of 50% of abuse is now being perpetrated by juveniles. Most YSOs don’t have prevention prioritized.

Purposely scaring children for likes and monetary gain as a content creator should be banned.
This is not harmless fun, this is traumatizing and can affect a child’s wellbeing for the short and long term.
We have a long way to go. This is sadistic.
@EricAbbenante This is accurate. The correlation to childhood trauma, specifically sexual abuse cannot be denied. These children need support to work through what caused the distress, yet it’s often being ignored. It’s unconscionable.
This is an issue affecting communities and children across the globe. For every perpetrator who is caught and arrested there are likely 1,000s who are still walking free. Prevention needs to be a priority for every community. https://t.co/amGOL4yMGp
