It is hard to imagine, isn't it? It is largely because they are insecure, have a very low self-esteem and need something to prove to themselves they are powerful. Women and children are often the target because they are easily overpowered. Once the abusive person has "tasted" that powerful feeling, they often want more and more innocence to take from another to build their own sense of being strong and in control.
Often people who abuse children were abused themselves when children. They saw that as the way to cope with frustration watching their parents' example. They felt the abuse which undermined their self image and security. It is a spiraling cycle, that unless one link in the chain decides to never do that, the generation after generation of abusive people are created.
Tell someone if you are being abused: a relative, a friend's parents, a teacher, the school nurse, the principal, a policeman, your doctor... Don't suffer thinking there is nothing you can do or that you deserve it. No one deserves that, there is no reason to take it. Tell someone.
