It's far from obvious what the effects of COVID-19 are on child abuse. The data is hard to disaggregate because there are so many conflicting factors, but there isn't obvious reason to believe that child abuse is up during the pandemic given the data we have seen: https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2021/03/419961/child-abuse-surges-times-crisis-pandemic-may-be-different https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2021/03/419961/child-abuse-surges-...

The point remains, I have yet to see any clear objective policy making that even tries to estimate impact on life of all citizens. In absence of anything resembling a consideration of all age groups, I just ignore any opinion of lockdown both for and against.
