Child-on-Child Sexual Abuse

Minors sexually harming other minors is a deeply sensitive and culturally taboo issue that, when it happens, can leave parents feeling overwhelmed and unsure what to do.
Child-on-child-sexual-abuse (COCSA) is estimated to make up 1/3 of all child sexual abuse cases. COCSA typically involves a power difference between two children, whether it is in age, size, or ability.
It's essential for parents to create a safe space for open dialogue, provide emotional support, and seek professional help for all parties involved.
Focusing on education, empathy, and healing helps families navigate this difficult experience and work toward prevention.
This important video focuses on a mother’s experience in dealing with COCSA, bringing attention to a topic that has largely been ignored by society. Thank you for your courage.

You touched my heart about your daughter and you. Your daughter is lucky to have her mother who give her the support, encouragement and healing. Her mother cherishes her daughter like they have the bond in their hearts. I pray for you both to get better every day. 🤟🏼🤟🏼🙏✝️😤Donna 😊

Thank you for sharing this story. This happened to me when I was 4 with my babysitter's daughter. Now that I am a parent it's good to know there are more resources to reach if it happens to my daughters.

I experienced molestation and sex traffic from when I was 3 years old until I was 13 years old.
