that kid is a bloody good actor.

Can I just say that for the people who are going to be all weak willed about this video and say it's too graphic, you're the ones who can't face reality when it comes down to it. You're the ones who put doubt in people's minds as to weather abuse on any level exists. Don't censor a video like this when it'll give others the chance to open their eyes and face reality for themselves. Thank you.

I was working with the ISPCC when this video came out, and working with parents and children in the Irish community. I listened to the negative & positive feedback from everyone. I must have watched this video hundreds of times and I still well up inside every time I see it. Sadly this isn't based on fiction, this happens day in and day out and a big thumbs up to all those in that boardroom who gave the go ahead for this ad's release!

Certain comments from people who've NEVER been through something like this are amusing. Having been an orphan and a victim of all kinds of abuse myself, I think that because this ad IS so graphic, it must be shown. The fact that people are disturbed by it means it's having the desired effect. There are other ways to support a charity than giving cash I'm sure so why don't you advertise those as well, rather than just asking for money.

This advert deserves to be seen. It is incomprehensible to me that this could be banned for sexism. It doesn't suggest that only men commit physical abuse, either explicitly or implicitly. The only good thing about it being banned is the widespread publicity that has resulted; people all over the world are seeing and talking about this ad - it's all over the child-related Facebook pages, people are talking about it on forums, it's made the news worldwide. Let's hope the message gets through.

oh, my God.....

[LindaFromGermany]

when i saw this, i start to cry.

[MrAjwild]

well don't to the little actor.. great awareness of what some children really have to go through...

[Delrada]

If you think this is too graphic, think again. This is nothing compared to the reality that's out there. Nothing. Children are being tortured, abused, degraded, raped and even murdered right now. I work with the victims every day. Believe me, it's worse than you could ever imagine.
