**Real Case: A 14-year-old girl suffered repeated abuse at the hands of her uncle, who took advantage of her trust and family access. This case reflects the most frequent and hidden pattern of child abuse, where the abuser is usually someone close who manipulates with secrets and threats. The young woman’s courage in breaking the silence reveals not only the trauma of the abuse but also the devastating betrayal of a bond that should be safe. The family and social response must be to believe the victim, prioritize her protection, and report the abuse, making it clear that “family peace” can never take precedence over the well-being of a child.**
