- W2809583677 abstract "In recent year’s child sexual exploitation has received significant attention in the UKpolitically, publically, and in the media. In particular, high profile cases involving groups ofmen and adolescent girls have resulted in criticism directed towards safeguarding services.Of specific concern is whether sexually exploited young people have been safeguarded, asthey should have been. If they have not been, is this because safeguarding professionalsunderstand young people to be ‘making a choice’ to be in sexually exploitative situationsand therefore they are ‘left to it’. Thus, this doctoral research considers how social workersunderstand CSE, with a focus on the social workers’ understandings of sexually exploitedgirls as choice-makers and agents. Eighteen social workers, from three local authorities,within one region in England were interviewed. The interviewees work in all areas ofsafeguarding. To further elicit the social workers’ understandings of sexually exploited girls,the interviewees’ understandings of girls sexually abused in the home were also explored.How girls' choice-making and agency are understood and responded to, depending onwhere, and by whom they have been abused/exploited, is explored. The methodology isqualitative and adopts a social constructionist, feminist approach utilising thematic analysis.The social workers understand that CSE happens to a certain ‘type’ of girl: one who is likelyto be socially and economically deprived; that is why the social workers understand she isvulnerable to CSE. The interviewees have complex understandings regarding who is toblame for CSE and the lack of overt blame placed on the perpetrators, alongside significantculpability placed on the girls, is striking. Moreover, the confluence of choice-making andblame within the interviewees’ epistemological framework concerning CSE and sexuallyexploited girls is of specific note. The social workers ‘wrestle’ with their understandings ofsexually exploited girls as choice-makers, this is because they associate choice with blameand this leaves them conflicted. The way in which they resolve this conflict is to invalidatecertain choices that girls make which they understand ‘result’ in her being exploited, inorder not to blame her. The research concludes that social workers need to separate outchoice-making from blame and recognise that sexually exploited girls make choices, withina context but that they should never be blamed for making those choices. Furthermore,their agency needs to be encouraged and enabled in positive directions and blame shouldalways and unequivocally be placed on the perpetrators." @default.
