There are many different reasons that children and adults remain silent about the "secret" of abuse, including:
- scared that the abuser will hurt or fatally injure them
- fear that the abuser will hurt or fatally injure a love one
- embarrassment
- the abuser convinced the victim that "no one will believe you"
- the abuser convinced the victim that "you wanted it as much as I did"
- the abuser uses bribes or any form of "currency" that the child needs or wants including attention, money, gifts, or special treats
- the victim starts to believe he/she did "want it" simply because he/she wanted the items the abuser promised
- just want to pretend it never happened
- don't know it's abuse
- the lack of words to define or describe what happed
- the abuse occurred at night so that the incidents become clouded "as if a dream"
- the victim dissociates so there is a wall between "now" and what occurred "before now", even during the abuse
- the victim suffers from Stockholm's syndrom (start to have feeling for the abuser and will sympathised with the abuser)
Parents who do nothing after being told by a child about abuse often do not tell anyone because:
- the parent is the abuser in many cases
OR....
- the parent/s do not understand the danger of abuse, even if they have another child in the home
- the abuser is the mother's boyfriend so the mother chooses her boyfriend over the child
- the abuser is the mother's boyfriend and the mother cannot get away from him
- the abuser is the father who also commits domestic violence--the mother feels she cannot safely leave and take her children with her
- the abuser is the spouse or boyfriend who has threatened the mother as well as the kids and the victim
- the parent fears involvement of child welfare
- the parent was also an abused child so he or she thinks "I got through it, so can you"
- the parent feels powerless
- the parent is in denial
- the parent has a mental illness and is ineffective at protecting a child
- the abuser is the parent's workplace boss and the parent needs the job so therefore chooses not to tell the authorities
OR....
Both parents or the mother and a live-in boyfriend commit the abuse together against the child.

Chilld abuse can't always be recognized, but in general, it is the parents or guardians who are primarily responsible for the condition of children, so if children can be seen to be in bad condition, physically and/or mentally, there is a good chance that they are being abused. Sometimes children will specifically complain of abuse, which is the clearest indication. But children (like adults) don't always tell the truth, so beware of leaping to conclusions.
