Child Exploitation

"Child Exploitation" can be defined as causing or permitting any harmful or offensive contact on a child's body;and, any communication or transaction of any kind which humiliates, shames, or frightens the child. Some child  development experts go a bit further, and define child Exploitation as any act or omission, which fails to  nurture or in the upbringing of the children.  The Child Exploitation Prevention and Treatment Act defines child Exploitation and neglect as: “at a minimum, any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker, which results in death, serious physical or  emotional harm, sexual Exploitation or exploitation, or an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm.”  A child of any age, sex, race, religion, and socioeconomic background can fall victim to child Exploitation and
neglect.  There are many factors that may contribute to the occurrence of child Exploitation and neglect. Parents may be  more likely to maltreat their children if they Exploitation drugs or alcohol.
