Abstract

Children are often termed as a bright future of a progressive nation, but these young minds are almost extinguished due to the abusive nature of humanity. Some evil elements in the society are destroying the future of society. Humans are losing the basic essence of values and morals, no society is free from crime, but some among them are committing crimes against modesty of an individual. Most of the researches on children reveal that they are common victims of physical & sexual abuse even within the safe bounds of family and schools. This paper aimed at aspects of treatments for sex offenders and their rehabilitation. A Child's mind is very fragile as compared to an adult, as a result of sudden unexpected unnatural acts their psychological personality might come in conflict with their regular life pattern, hence treatment for victim of child sexual abuse is also considered in this paper.
