The media sensationalizing and hyper focusing on horrific but ultimately extremely rare cases while largely ignoring more widespread but "mundane" cases of child abuse has created a society of fear. Negative emotions like fear, anger, and hatred are their bread and butter after all. I could even get into the research that suggests the extreme reaction people have towards certain cases of abuse is just as damaging to the child as the act itself, but that's an even touchier subject.
