Report on Child Sexual Abuse?

Question by Esme: Report On Child Sexual Abuse?
For A Gcse option I took health and social btec and I have to create a poster on different forms of child abuse. I’ve written about pretty much all of them, emotional, mental, physical, But I don’t know what to write about sexual abuse, I don’t really know much about it as we haven’t learnt about it yet.
I have to write about “Signs that could suggest a child is being sexually abused” does anybody know any? all I could think of was bruises/cuts.

Best answer:

Some signs rather then: Bruises, cuts etc would be Emotional signs maybe all of a sudden the child is acting different they’re emotions have changed drastically from being happy to almost looking like they’re depressed Also If maybe they’ve being doing self-harm to themselves (cutting,taking drugs, drinking etc) because they cannot cope with the situation. (Of course this varies for teenagers)
