Abstract

Unfortunately, in the reality of modern society, more and more negative phenomena appear, which affect us directly or indirectly, both directly us and the direction to which the society is heading, the most affected being the children. Their vulnerability makes them targets of various types of abuses and aggressions committed by adults. The studies show an alarming dynamics of some phenomena where the children have an important place among the victims. Unfortunately, in Romania, this phenomenon has not been one of the priorities. In this study, we shall try to identify the reasons that represent the basis of children victimization, the immediate and long term effects upon the victims, the social environment that favors it as well as the prevention and fighting measures against these aggressions.
