Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026
A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

Hi Rituu,
Many thanks for the suggestion. About your question: my main interest is in finding something that would help me to learn from the monitoring of relationship building work. I have the fundamental (basic?) question of: what makes relationships 'strong' and what type of indicators (and even more broadly what M&E methodologies) would help us understand whether a relationship is strong or not? Is it only on the basis of the frequency of exchanges/joint actions/etc etc? Do these even matter or are they the best indicators to understand whether a relationship is strong? I know context matters so I am not expecting to find the recipe, but I am looking for some ideas, concepts, tools that I can then adapt or take from. Thx

Hi Ranjani, many thanks for the suggestion and sorry for the very very late response, I didn't realize someone had replied. Would you have a couple of 'must-to-read' resources on bonding, linking and bridging to recommend me? Many thanks in advance!
