Sexting 'common' in schools
"A charity has told Tyne Tees that 'sexting' has become so common that some children are being asked to take topless photos of themselves two or three times a week.
A national charity says the problem of sexting has become so common that girls are being asked to pose for pictures two or three times a week. Sexting is where children take explict pictures of themselves and send them to friends or post them on the internet."

Sue Berelowitz Does Not Quite Get 'Moral Panic', Does She?
9:00PM BST 03 Apr 2013
Entire school year groups have seen porn, children's watchdog says
"Entire year groups of young teenage children in schools have watched adult pornography, the children’s watchdog has warned.
16,000 at risk of child sex exploitation [sic]
Deputy children's commissioner Sue Berelowitz said that she had found that some boys felt they had an 'absolute entitlement to have sex with girls, any time, any place, any where, with whomsoever they wished' [and, what's new?].
Sue Berelowitz, deputy children's commissioner, suggested that the scale of access to adult pornography among children is now so widespread that it should trigger “moral panic” among parents, schools and the Government about what should be done.
Unpublished research [of course, unpublished and not peer-reviewed] by the Children's Commissioner into access to adult pornography among children is much more widespread than previously thought, with every boy and half the girls in a year group of 14-year-olds accessing pornography in an entire local authority area."

Thousands of children raped by gangs with ‘menus’ of victims
"Shocking report on UK sex abuse
2,409 ... children abused by gangs between August 2010 and October 2011
"THOUSANDS of children a year are raped by organised gangs — who give fellow perverts sick “menus” to pick their victims, an official report said yesterday.
The Children’s Commissioner highlights the “conspiracy of silence” which allowed Savile to “rape children with impunity”. However, it adds that it is “too easy to simply blame the BBC” as the problem was far more widespread.
It reveals 2,409 youngsters were abused in the space of just 14 months. But astonishingly, Government sources branded the report “hysterical” and “highly emotional” last night.
The devastating document details how paedophiles [sic] can browse at leisure for children to attack with the aid of photos and details including ages on the menus.
In addition to recorded attacks, another 16,500 children were seen as being at “high risk”, according to the report by Deputy Children’s Commissioner Sue Berelowitz.
In one abuse case, a six-month series of sickening attacks left a 12-year-old girl looking like “a ravaged, haggard old woman”."

Online porn linked to half of all child sex abuse cases
"Report identified some 16,500 youngsters as displaying signs of being vulnerable to being sexually abused
The impact of online porn is partly to blame in half [control group?] of cases where children are at risk of sexual exploitation
Thousands of children in England are at high risk of sexual exploitation – and in half the cases, the impact of online porn is partly to blame, a devastating report found last night.
Some 16,500 youngsters – the equivalent of 20 medium-sized secondary schools [!] – were identified over the course of one year as displaying signs of being vulnerable to being raped or otherwise sexually abused.
Contrary to expectations, many were from ‘loving and stable’ middle-class homes, with children as young as four at risk.
Vulnerable: Children from 'loving and stable' middle-class homes were among those found to be at risk
The study by Sue Berelowitz, the deputy children’s commissioner, into sexual exploitation by urban gangs found that the ‘use and impact’ of pornography was a major factor [sic] in 48 per cent of interviews with abuse victims and perpetrators.

The invention of yet another form of abuse
"A new report claiming that thousands of British children are being sexually exploited is built on alarmist moralising rather than hard facts.
A new report from the UK Office of the Children’s Commissioner, titled Inquiry into Child Sexual Exploitation in Gangs and Groups, shows that policy-led research is still flourishing in Westminster.
The key thing about such research is that it is commissioned to provide evidence for what policymakers already believe to be true. In other words, such research is really just policymakers’ prejudices masquerading as a piece of academic work. The authors of this new report explain that what ‘prompted’ their inquiry was ‘mounting concern about child sexual exploitation and the inadequate responses to it’. That is, the people behind the inquiry already knew there was a ‘mounting’ danger out there; the only problem was finding some evidence to prove the existence of this danger."

03 July 2012
Sadistic child abuse ‘taking place across the country’
"Sue Berelowitz, whose report on child protection is published today, said she was shocked by the “violent and sadistic” nature of the abuse she uncovered.
Children’s minister Tim Loughton said too many children are being sent to care homes far from friends and families, in areas surrounded by bail hostels, registered sex offenders and drug users. Ms Berelowitz produced her report after the sentencing in May of nine men who groomed and abused young girls in Rochdale.
She said: “We are finding that this is happening in all parts of England, rural and urban. In cars, taxis, home, rented accommodation, bus stations, parks, open spaces, beside canals, in open corridors of flats, hotels, schools.
"Almost in any place I am afraid. It is violent and sadistic in nature. I have never come across the scale of violence and sadism I am encountering now.”"

"Recent reports of rampant child abuse in the UK owe more to the sordid mindset of officialdom than fact.
‘Sadistic child abuse is rife across Britain, MPs warned’; ‘Girls of 11 doing sex acts on rows of boys’; ‘Child abuse taking place in every “town, village and hamlet” in England’...
The origin of these depressing, not to mention salacious, headlines was England’s deputy children’s commissioner, Sue Berelowitz. Speaking before the House of Commons home affairs select committee as part of its inquiry into child sexual exploitation and so-called street-grooming, Berelowitz seemingly couldn’t stop herself from giving vent to her pervy imagination. ‘We should start from the assumption that children are being sexually exploited right the way across the country’, she said, seemingly oblivious to the rather sordid nature of such an assumption. Perhaps spotting a few raised eyebrows, she cited a source: ‘As one police officer who was the lead in a very big investigation in a very lovely, leafy, rural part of the country said to me: “There isn’t a town, village or hamlet in which children are not being sexually exploited.”’
On and on she went, coupling shrill assertion with allusions to proof. ‘In urban, rural and metropolitan areas’, she continued, ‘I have hard evidence of children being sexually exploited. That is part of what is going on in some parts of our country. It is very sadistic. It is very violent. It is very ugly.’"
"Recently, times have been tougher for the children’s commissioner. Having seen New Labour’s largesse replaced by the coalition’s quango-cutting desperation, the office knows it needs to justify itself. And what better way to do so than take advantage of the recent Rochdale street-grooming convictions and suggest that we are currently in the grip of a plague of child abuse. Its cynicism knows no bounds.
So not only should we treat the fear of rampant child abuse with the scepticism it deserves, but also how about abolishing the official fearmongers, too?"

'Sadistic child abuse' is rife, is it? Haven't we heard that hysterical claim before?
"In each of these unhinged panics, innocent people were arrested and families were ripped apart, as social workers who believed their own made-up horror stories invaded homes across Britain. And now Ms Berelowitz, the new Pervert-Finder General, wants us to believe that sadists lurk in every "town, village and hamlet" and that the government ought to do something about it. It is the latter bit we should really be worried about. Are these people even aware of how much they sound like the cranky overseers of the Salem witch trials? History tells us that when figures in authority insist that sadists and weirdos and witches are stalking the land and gobbling up our children, we should simply refuse to believe them."

Sue Berelowitz, Deputy Children's Commissioner attended a reception earlier this week at 10 Downing Street hosted by the Rt Hon, Theresa May MP, Home Secretary to highlight the day.

A lesson in how not to abolish a quango
"Here, then, is an object lesson in how not to abolish a quango. Instead of disposing of a superfluous, largely powerless and discredited body, the government has given it a new lease of life, new powers and a stronger voice to criticise government. Not only has the coalition lost an opportunity to save the taxpayer £3million pa, it has - whilst almost certainly ensuring that the quango's budget will continue to grow - also generated additional, unquantified, cost to taxpayers by giving the OCC power to make new demands on the public sector in response to its findings."

Michael Gove is a brave and brilliant man, but handing head teachers the freedom to set staff pay is pointless
"Maybe Mr Gove's decision to expand, not close, that most useless and hubristic of quangos, the Office of the Children’s Commissioner, was another such. As Jill Kirby asked in her incisive blog on Conservative Home yesterday, “Would Michael Gove, if acting alone, have appointed John Dunford (a vocal opponent of free schools) or succumbed so readily to the “children's rights” lobby? Wouldn't sheer common sense have informed him of the fallacy of assuming that one man (or woman) should have the power to speak for 11 million children?”"

"Same Horse - Different Jockey"
"I do feel that a better candidate for Board 'Chair' than Ms Battle whose experience was gained whilst working for one of the most useless quangos, Childrens Commissioner for Wales, could have been found at Office Angels. Her statement is as empty and meaningless as any I have heard from someone chosen to Chair an organisation with a £1bn budget. Let's give her the benefit of the doubt as she probably makes an excellent 'cuppa', even though she will probably will be word perfect in every platitude of her longer-serving colleagues."
