Letter: Protecting children
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: The NSPCC knows from dealing with people who come for help - and our own experience as parents - that the world is not divided into good and bad people ("Who cares about children?", 17 March).
The Fullstop campaign is not about the good driving out the bad.
It is about awareness and self awareness; enabling action; creating an infrastructure and services for people concerned about cruelty to children, providing help and support which they can trust.
Above all, it is about changing attitudes so that cruelty to children becomes absolutely intolerable.
Because the world is not divided into good and bad we know that there are no simple solutions and this will not be easy. But we are determined to create the will in this country, together, to try.
