Which factor is NOT a commonly cited reason for children not reporting sexual abuse?

Support from friends is not typically cited as a reason that children do not report sexual abuse. In fact, having supportive friends can often encourage a child to speak out about their experiences. When children feel they have a strong social network, this can alleviate some of the fears and doubts they may have about reporting.

On the other hand, fear of not being believed, fear of being labeled promiscuous, and embarrassment are common barriers that children face. These factors can lead to feelings of isolation and confusion, making it more difficult for them to communicate their experiences. Understanding these barriers is crucial in creating an environment where children feel safe to report abuse.
