The Philippines has become the world’s hotspot of live stream sexual assault (World Hope International, 2020) and that the online sexual exploitation and abuse of children (OSAEC) is a family-based crime (International Justice Mission, 2020). Furthermore, UNICEF (2016) revealed that the Philippines has emerged as the center of child sex abuse materials (CSAM) production in the world, with 80% of Filipino children vulnera-ble to online sexual abuse, some facilitated by their parents. All the cases reported took place in private homes, either in the house of the children, their relatives, or fami-ly friends who served as facilitators of the abuse and exploitation. The reason cited by research for parents to use their children in this manner is poverty and found further that funds gained from these efforts have been used only for daily needs. An important question remains, however, and that is how parents moved beyond the rationale of poverty to being an active and willing partner to abuse their children in this manner. This study sets out with that question. However, due to the sensitivity of the questions along with the already difficult access to incarcerated parents, only 2 potential partici-pants agreed to be interviewed. While the study continued using the methodology as originally set out, due to only 2 respondents the report is written as case studies. De-spite that only 2 case studies do not allow any generalizations, the data remains rich enough to allow professional sharing and to highlight new information for use in future research.
Our newly published storybook that hopes to teach the reader about how to protect oneself from the coronavirus, simple hygiene concerns, how to face and handle the stress, and how to triumph over such difficulties with each other's help and love from our families.
