Child Rape!

Tweet

im a South African and i am shocked by newspaper reports of children aged as young as four or five being raped by adults in South Africa. When i read about it for the first time I couldn't believe what i was reading, i couldnt understand how someone could harm a child like that. What i find most troubling about it is the fact that it seems to be a growing trend,more and more South African children are falling victim to the same type of abuse. I guess what i would like to know is, does this type of thing only happen here? or is this a global issue?
