wikipedia the free encyclopedia sexual abuse between children child on child sexual abuse frequently abbreviated to cocsa is a form of child sexual abuse in which a prepubescent child is sexually abused by one or more other children or adolescents and in which no adult is directly involved while this may include one of the children using physical force threats trickery or emotional manipulation to elicit cooperation it also can include non coercive situations where the initiator proposes or starts a sexual act that the victim does not understand the nature of and simply goes along with not comprehending its implications or what the consequences might be 1 child on child sexual abuse is differentiated from normative sexual play or anatomical curiosity and exploration e g playing doctor because child on child sexual abuse is an overt and deliberate action often directed at sexual stimulation including orgasm other factors include age difference frequency duration coercion and appropriateness to a child s developmental level 2 when sexual abuse is perpetrated by one sibling upon another it is known as inter sibling abuse 3 when victims of inter sibling child on child sexual abuse grow up they often have a distorted recollection of the act such as thinking it was consensual or that they were the initiator 2 causes edit in the case of child on child sexual abuse young children who have not matured sexually are incapable of knowing about specific sex acts without an external source 4 5 6 consequently children who initiate or solicit overtly sexual acts with other children either have been sexually victimized beforehand by an adult or another child 4 5 7 or they have been exposed to sexually explicit material research shows that about one third to one half of children with problematic sexual behaviors have no history of sexual abuse themselves 8 in many instances the perpetrating child has been exposed to pornography or repeatedly witnessed sexual activity of adults at a very young age and this can also be considered a form of child sexual abuse 7 in many cases a child or adolescent may have no intent to cause any harm to another child and they act merely on a passing impulse however this act may still result in harm to the other child and is a form of child on child sexual abuse 9 furthermore children who had experienced an unwanted sexual approach may not understand that this act was a crime against themselves 10 in other instances child on child sexual abuse results from hazing rather than eroticism numerous cases have emerged involving young male sports players inserting fingers or objects into their teammates anuses without consent 11 12 13 14 prevalence edit research estimates that over half of child sexual abuse offenses in the united states are committed by perpetrators under the age of 18 15 however child on child sexual abuse frequently goes unreported because it is not widely known about by the public 16 and often occurs outside of adults supervision even if known by adults it is sometimes dismissed as harmless by those who do not understand the implications 16 in particular inter sibling abuse is under reported relative to the reporting rates for parent child sexual abuse 3 and disclosure of the incest by the victim during childhood is rare 2 effects edit children who were sexually victimized by other minors including inter sibling abuse show largely the same problems as children victimized by adults including anxiety disorders depression substance abuse suicide eating disorders post traumatic stress disorder sleep disorders and difficulty trusting peers in the context of relationships 1 17 the victim often thinks that the act was normal including thinking they were the initiator or that they went through the act voluntarily 2 major factors that affect the severity of symptoms include the use of force or coercion the frequency of the abuse and the invasiveness of the act 18 an increased risk of victimization later in life has also been reported 19 the term minor sex offenders may be used for children under 18 years of age who have initiated any non consensual sexual activity with another person this population may be viewed as a younger version of sexual perpetrators and may be assessed as part of the same group when they represent a significant heterogeneous group for example these children tend to exhibit different motivations for their actions than adult sexual offenders and they tend to respond more favorably to treatment 10 see also edit age of
