PHYSICAL ABUSE

Sometimes people might hurt you or scare you by:

KIDS HAVE RIGHTS TOO! Nobody is allowed to hurt you All human rights for all! Nobody has the right to hurt you.

• hitting you
• pushing you
• doing something else that hurts you or scares you
• telling you they are going to hurt you or someone you love or your pet
• blaming you for things you didn't do.

It is not your fault! You do not deserve to be hurt.

People are not allowed to do these things

• even if they are older or bigger than you
• even if they are your mom or dad
• even if you have done something wrong

If someone is angry with you, they must talk to you about it. They must not hit you.

If someone is hurting you or scaring you, or hurting someone you know, YOU CAN GET HELP.

• Tell someone who can help
• Keep telling until someone helps
• Call the Child Help Line - 08000 55555 or the Police - 10111.
