Age in which children are most vulnerable to sexual abuse and exploitation, and related mental health issues. For some children, it is the age in which they have no concept of sex or sexual development, and for others, it is an age in which they develop their reproductive phase and start having feeling sexual desire and or lack sophisticated social skills, to navigate people who want to exploit and manipulate them. For some, it is the age in which children begin to experiment with mind-altering substances such as drugs, alcohol, money, and power. For some it is the age in which they are highly dependent on a sexual abuser, such as a parent or authority figure such as a priest, or teacher.
For some it is the age in which they are poor, lack the psychological and social skills. An age when they feel powerless, and vulnerable to all sorts of manipulation and exploitation and unhealthy social pressures. It is the age in which they can be easily overpowered physically and mentally and for which they have little or no defense. And when they try to defend themselves against the abuse they are often made to feel powerless and hopeless and often further exploited and humiliated.
It is generally the age between 0-17, before the age of adulthood.

Get the Pushing on a string mug.Greatly accelerating movement for a more civil society. The movement is for democratic solutions that involve the public at large and not through special interest groups solutions that have only perpetuated violence. They are for providing more public health to assure mental fitness. And they are against increasing the more violent types of methods and technologies that have only accentuated the problem of violence. While the issue of violence has always been debated and discussed through democratic means it has not always gotten very far with regards to effective public policy. After repeated police killings, street violence, massacres in schools and public places the youth have taken charge and started to effectively lead on this issue of a more civil life democracy free of violence.
The Civil Life Movement has lingered through the ages, making incremental progress on major issues, such as human rights, civil rights, and minority rights. However, it has also neglected some of the most fundamental issues, such as the right to be free of violence and violent methods of dispute resolution. After repeated failures to keep massacres and even domestic violence under control, the youth have organized Enough Rallies to focus on effective and human policies to reduce violence, and to solve problems democratically as a people instead of leaving it to special interest groups.
