Sagot :

Answer:

Panic attacks

Sexual acting-out

Difficulty sitting or walking

Poor relationship with peers

Explanation:

The question above is asking for "behavioral findings," thus, "genital injuries" is not part of it because it is a physical finding.

Children who are being sexually abused are under a lot of stress, thus, it is common for them to have panic attacks. They have excess fear and worry. They also have a natural tendency to sexually act out against other kids. They will have poor relationship with peers because they don't want to be with other people. Thus, they'd also lose interest in going to school and their performance will be affected. The child also has difficulty sitting or walking and may have bedwetting problems.
