20.01.2022 Children are more likely to stay quiet about abuse or harm than to speak up (especially if they know their abuser). On the rare occasion that children or young people can and do speak out they need to be heard and given an appropriate response to ensure their safety and well-being. It is unusual for children who are being abused to tell someone. When this does occur, that someone needs to pay attention. As part of Queensland Child Protection Week in Gympie (6-12 Sept), we’ve ...put together a list of helpful services that can provide confidential support to kids and parents.

06.01.2022 Mean or cruel words harm children and young people. Cruel comments, name calling or yelling at children can hurt them and make them feel unimportant and unlovable. ‘Sticks and Stones’ comments of days gone by have long been disproven and it is clear that calling children names, even in jest is harmful. Yelling, name calling or making cruel comments about children or any part of them is harmful. If you are a trusted person in a child’s life it is most likely that they will bel...ieve what you are saying. As part of Queensland Child Protection Week in Gympie (6-12 Sept), we’ve put together a list of helpful services that can provide confidential support to kids and parents.

03.01.2022 The majority of people who harm children are parents or care givers and do so emotionally, physically or by neglect. The intent is not necessarily to harm children often stress factors mean that adults take out their stress on children, either through neglect or through verbal or physical means. This is not acceptable behaviour but with assistance from professionals and with the support of others within the family and community these forms of abuse can be eradicated. Paren...ts and care providers can learn new skills and children can be supported to live safely with their families or care givers. As part of Queensland Child Protection Week in Gympie (6-12 Sept), we’ve put together a list of helpful services that can provide confidential support to kids and parents.
