Catholic Church sex abuse cases

In the Catholic Church, sex abuse cases mean that certain priests and other people who work in the Church have done bad things to children that are against the law. These bad things include unwanted touching and trying to get the children to do things they do not want to do. These bad things are serious and can cause a lot of harm to the children. The Church is doing its best to make sure this kind of thing does not happen again by getting rid of priests and others who have behaved badly and taking extra steps to keep victims safe.
