Are you scared? uncomfortable?

You are not alone. There is help for you.

Contact CHILDLINE who will also help and advise you.

Abuse can be:

• Physical
• Emotional
• Sexual
• Neglect
• Exploitation

Sometimes parents argue a lot and this can be really upsetting and if there is violence or parents are abusive of each other this can really effect how you feel, and you may not know how to deal with these feelings.

Parents taking  illegal drugs or drinking too much alcohol  don't always realise the effect this is having on their children. Even though parents may love their children, sometimes they cannot pay attention to the child's needs. 

If something is worrying you or making you scared, either at home or outside the home,  it is important to try  get help and at least talk about it with someone. If you don't know who to turn to, or want to speak to someone that doesn't know you, there are people that can help:

If you are in danger call the police on 999

Or you can speak to a social worker in Slough on 01753 875362  

Or speak to your teacher or an adult you trust at school.

Call Childline on  0800 1111
