    When a child discloses abuse to you, it is important to believe him/her.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Believing a child when they disclose abuse is crucial because it validates their experience and encourages them to trust and seek help from adults. By believing them, we create a safe environment for the child to share their feelings and experiences, and it helps to prevent further harm. Additionally, believing the child allows for appropriate action to be taken, such as reporting the abuse to the proper authorities and providing the necessary support and resources for the child's well-being and recovery.

    Child sexual abuse is very rare and exaggerated by the media.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Child sexual abuse is not rare and is not exaggerated by the media. In fact, child sexual abuse is a serious and widespread issue that affects many children around the world. Research and studies have consistently shown that child sexual abuse is more prevalent than what is reported or known. The media plays an important role in raising awareness about this issue and shedding light on the experiences of survivors, which can help in prevention and support efforts. Therefore, the statement that child sexual abuse is rare and exaggerated by the media is false.

    Teaching students to be sensitive to other people’s feelings is a way to break the bullying cycle.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Teaching students to be sensitive to other people's feelings can help break the bullying cycle because it promotes empathy and understanding. When students learn to consider how their actions and words may affect others, they are less likely to engage in bullying behavior. By fostering a culture of kindness and respect, students are more likely to intervene when they witness bullying and support victims, creating a safer and more inclusive environment for everyone.

  • 6. 

    Most children who are sexually abused are abused by strangers.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false. Contrary to popular belief, most children who are sexually abused are actually abused by someone they know, such as a family member, family friend, or acquaintance. Research and studies consistently show that the majority of child sexual abuse cases involve perpetrators who have a close relationship with the child, rather than being committed by strangers. This misconception can be harmful as it may lead to a failure to recognize and prevent abuse within familiar circles.

    • True

    • False

    Child neglect is the most common type of child maltreatment. Neglect refers to the failure of a caregiver to provide the necessary physical, emotional, educational, or medical needs of a child. This can include not providing adequate food, shelter, clothing, supervision, or medical care. Neglect can have serious long-term consequences for a child's physical and emotional well-being.

    The four conditions a bully attempts to force on a victim are isolation, dehumanization, disempowerment and inevitability.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true because bullies often try to isolate their victims, making them feel alone and unsupported. They also dehumanize their victims by treating them as less than human and stripping away their dignity. Bullies also aim to disempower their victims, taking away their power and control over their own lives. Lastly, bullies try to create a sense of inevitability, making their victims feel like there is no escape from the bullying. Therefore, the four conditions mentioned in the statement are commonly seen in bullying situations.

    The three main characteristics of a bullying situation are harm, unfair match, and repeated incidents.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because in a bullying situation, harm is inflicted upon the victim, there is an unfair power imbalance between the bully and the victim, and the incidents of bullying occur repeatedly over time. These three characteristics are commonly observed in bullying situations and help to distinguish them from other forms of conflict or aggression.

    Physical abuse is the intended, non-accidental physical injury or cruelty to a child.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Physical abuse refers to the intentional and non-accidental act of causing physical harm or cruelty to a child. This can include actions such as hitting, kicking, burning, or any other form of physical violence. The statement that physical abuse is the intended, non-accidental physical injury or cruelty to a child is correct. It highlights the deliberate nature of physical abuse and emphasizes that it is not accidental.

  • 11. 

    Isolation of a victim can only happen if there is no one around.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Isolation of a victim can happen even if there are people around. This is because isolation refers to the state of being separated or cut off from others, regardless of the presence of people nearby. Therefore, the statement that isolation of a victim can only happen if there is no one around is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    If you report a case of child abuse, you are always risking legal liability.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Reporting a case of child abuse does not always result in legal liability. In fact, most jurisdictions have laws in place to protect individuals who report suspected child abuse in good faith. These laws typically provide immunity from legal action as long as the report is made in good faith and without malicious intent. Therefore, it is incorrect to say that reporting a case of child abuse always carries legal liability.

    School personnel are only required to report cases of physical abuse to the local child abuse agency.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    School personnel are not only required to report cases of physical abuse to the local child abuse agency. They are also mandated reporters for other forms of abuse, such as sexual, emotional, and neglect. Mandated reporters have a legal obligation to report suspected cases of abuse or neglect to the appropriate authorities, which may include child protective services or law enforcement. Failing to report can result in legal consequences for the mandated reporter.

  • 14. 

    Social bullying is usually easy to detect.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Social bullying is not always easy to detect because it can be subtle and covert. Unlike physical bullying, which involves visible acts of aggression, social bullying involves manipulating social relationships, spreading rumors, excluding someone from a group, or cyberbullying. These actions may not be immediately noticeable, making it difficult to detect and address.
