Some are relatives, some are friends of the family, some are acquaintances. Less than 2% are strangers. Many sexual abusers have no other criminal history for any other type of crime, hold a job, and pay their taxes. You could not tell by looking at them that they sexually abused a child or teen.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Myth #2 – Children Make Up Reports of Sexual Abuse” tab_id=”1597793337782-ffac2fbc-5fd1″][vc_column_text]Children and teens rarely lie about sexual abuse and only come forward at great risk and with trepidation. They fear social humiliation and rejection to reveal something so personal and private. When children recant a report of child abuse it is most often due to pressure from non-supportive family members or because they fear worse retaliation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Myth #3 – Abuse Only Happens in the Poor Parts of Town” tab_id=”1597793532158-936677b2-9ef7″][vc_column_text]Child sexual abuse can and does occur in all socioeconomic groups and income levels.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_column_text]
