Children are taught to respect adults and listen to authority. Tragically, there are predatory adults who thrive on this notion and use it to take advantage of and sexually assault young boys and girls. Unfortunately, there has also been an increase in the frequency of student on student sexual molestation and assault in the school setting; children sexually abusing children. If you are the parent of a child who has been sexually assaulted by a once-trusted individual, whether by an adult or child, you need a law firm that understands the full range of your emotions about this event.
