Albany Prep School Sexual Abuse Lawyer Helps Parents Recognize The Signs Early
Has your child been acting differently recently?
Have you noticed changes in behavior like anger or anxiety?
Perhaps their school performance is slipping?
Has their self-confidence evaporated?
Maybe they’re having trouble sleeping?
Kat Thomas, Esq., the Abuse Guardian attorney for New York, knows there are many signs of sexual abuse amongst children and teenagers and she wants you to be aware of them.
Ms. Thomas has developed a reputation across New York for her work bringing justice to the young victims of prep school, private school and boarding school sexual abuses. Now, with her new online guide to recognizing the signs of abuse, she hopes to make more information available to concerned parents like you so that you can act sooner.
A Nationwide ProblemKat Thomas, Esq., has released her new online information package in response to the latest figures from the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), which showcased child sex abuse is a growing problem in the community with one in 9 girls and 1 in 20 boys under the age of 18 experiencing sexual abuse or assault. Ms. Thomas also cites some of RAINN’s more disturbing abuse statistics, including that school-aged teenage girls are 4 times more likely than the general population to be the victims of rape or sexual assault.
Given that 93% of abusers are known to the victim but only 34% are family members, Ms. Thomas also stresses that the statistics show that schools can, sadly, be a dangerous place for your child to be the victim of forced sexual acts, inappropriate touching, explicit image sharing or another sexual crime.
What Worried Parents Can DoMs. Thomas sees herself as a trustworthy and committed defender of victims and their families and she believes more education around the signs of school-based sexual abuse is key to the eradication of this crime.
If you have noticed your school-aged child becoming withdrawn, regressing socially, mentally, and/or academically, or having signs of physical injuries, she encourages you to come forward and speak to her team. Should Ms. Thomas and her associates believe there is a case, they can launch their own independent investigation for you.
Suing For Fair CompensationShould your child have tragically been abused at their prep school, Kat Thomas, Esq. can sue their school for fair compensation that includes, as she summarized:
“Medical expenses (including therapy and counseling), emotional distress and mental anguish, loss of educational and career opportunities, pain and suffering and punitive damages (in cases of particularly egregious conduct).”Kat Thomas, Esq. for Abuse GuardianMs. Thomas is the appointed New York attorney for Abuse Guardian, the only national alliance of specialized sexual abuse civil attorneys.
