The Center for Childhood Protection has released a powerful spot that encourages parents to learn how to recognize signs of abuse in their kids.

Created by AdPeople Worldwide, the spot has been voted by US Creative Department readers as Ad of the Week.

The video opens with a family of four getting ready to eat dinner. As they begin their meal, their teenage son begins to rattle off a list of problems he’s been experiencing lately.

“I’ve got this uncontrollable rage thing, I’ve withdrawn from all my friends, and I’m also failing all of my classes,” he says, before adding that he’s been molested every day for the past six months.

The ad ends with the warning: “Kids don’t talk like this. Learn to spot the signs of abuse.”
