Wow there are some sick people here. Almost half the children were under the age of six. Also, I wonder why the Ukraine war has anything to do with higher child abuse.

Why would you assume higher child abuse during the war in Ukraine?

The head of the child protection unit of the Zurich University Children's Hospital, Georg Staubli thinks the Ukraine war – among other things – could have put pressure on some parents.

Interesting, sound reasonable. Make sense, it the family is somehow involved in the war. Thanks for the explanation.
