Influence of Mass Media on Child Abuse Prevention Awareness among Parents and Teacher

Abstract

Nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors, and this is particularly true for the abuse of children. Their naiveté and lack of experience in the outside world are often utilized against them, which results in their subjugation. On a similar note, children are often used as scapegoats to vent the ire of their parents, teachers, and other relatives, all of whom can avoid any penalties. However, the aspect of the narrative that is most unfortunate is that the topic is taboo in India. As a result, an increasing number of children are subjected to physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, and neglect simply because they are unaware that these forms of abuse are abnormal.
