Without wanting to condone these abuses, but I got the idea this kind of news selected for it's 'entertainment' value.
How much do you hear about kids being bullied to death or being beaten up at home? Wich is far far worse than abuse (apart from rape) I think.
I think you hit the nail on the head here!
I mean, not that I had anywhere near the horrible experiences of any of these people, but I can't see the "news" being interested in the subtle emotional abuse that many children, including myself, endure for years. Because it's not something that can be said in two sentences, it's not worth mentioning.
