    • Caption Sara (21) was six when she complained that someone close to the family was interfering with her, but it wasn't until she was ten that she was heard. The last available study, conducted in 1994, indicated that 23 percent of girls and 15 percent of boys under the age of 17 in Spain had been sexually abused. Most abused children will never speak of their experience. As an adult survivor, Sara believes that disclosing her personal story will contribute to the prevention of future child sex abuse.
