ABSTRACT
A very famous poem by William Shakespeare “7 Stages of Life” includes a phase of “helpless infant” which every reader may not be find suitable to understand, agree or accept because childhood is a fleeting moment of one’s life which can’t stay for long even if one wants to. But what if it becomes a life-long nightmare? What if the protectors of child commit the ultimate betrayal? A touch from the right person embellishes the soul, but what if that touch is inappropriate? There comes “the helpless infant” which leads to the main issue “Violence against children”.
Keywords: Violence, exploitation, abuse, Human right, protection, children
