[00:00:00] Can we reduce sexual abuse? Some states have mandatory child abuse prevention education. Researchers asked, does this education lead more children to reveal being sexually abused? And is there an increase in school personnel reporting abuse? Assessing this, they used national child abuse and neglect data from 2005 to 2019 comparing states mandating and not mandating child sexual abuse education results. Yes. States with mandates to educate showed higher report increases by education personnel compared with states without education mandates. A fifth grader reported after a specially trained police officer educated her class, my mom always took me to my grandfather's home every Friday, so I thought she wanted me to do those sexual things with him. Parents demand that your state mandate child sexual abuse prevention in our schools and allow teachers to discuss and educate your children. Florida Adopt mandatory child abuse prevention training for our kids.
