My dad likes to touch me. Is this sexual abuse?

I think it really depends on where. If it's usually around your chest or genital area,then that could be considered molestation and you need to tell someone you trust that this is happening

Any unwanted touching that you feel crosses a line is sexual abuse. Contact your local DHR office or someone you trust and tell them what is going on. No parent should touch their child in a way that makes them feel uncomfortable.

it depends on how your father is touching you. If you're feeling uncomfortable with the way he is touching you tell him.

It depends on what kind of touching. Any touching in your private areas is considered sexual abuse.

If anyone is touching your body in a way that you do not want them to, that is wrong. If asked to stop they ought to stop. This is true for a parent as for anyone.

This is harassment. Telling an adult such as a mother or somebody trusted at school could stop this issue and help you get better.

It depends on the part of the body he touches you and even if it's on appropriate part you need to feel comfortable with it. If he hugs you or just hold your hand, maybe touch your hair and you're comfortable with it, it's okay. If you're not, you need to tell him cause he just might not realise. But if he touches you on inappropriate places, it's a sexual abuse and you need to tell someone. It's not and not easy thing to do, but no one deserve to be a victim of this kind of a behaviour.

It depends where and the way he touches you. If he hugs around the shoulder, holds hand, gives a pat on the back or on the head, nudges you with his elbow, that's fine, it's just fatherly. If the way he is touching you is like caressing you and feels sensual and you feel really uncomfortable, it is a form of sexual abuse. Like a spank on the but, or his hands around your waist isn't okay. Sexual abuse isn't necessarily him touching your sexual parts, it's him touching you inappropriately and you feeling uncomfortable. If he's touching your private parts, it is definitely sexual abuse.

This depends on where he touches you. If he is trying to sexually stimulate you or himself, then yes.

Sexual maltreatment is touching a minor, inappropriately for the intention of personal sexual gradification.
