Somewhere, a child screams for help: New data portal reflects the key issues that make redressing violence against children still a tough challenge

Quick Summary:

"BATA, laro tayo.Hindi pa ako napapalo.” Such was the comment of a young boy to a new-found playmate, heard by this reporter while on vacation years ago somewhere in southern Luzon.

The comment made the reporter laugh, recognizing that all children always had to test the limits of their freedom.

The level of violence experienced by children has prompted the Council for the Welfare of Children (CWC) to support the proposed Positive Parenting Bill, which seeks to ban corporal punishment.
