'My son was raped on a play date'
A mother who says her son was raped by a boy from school during a play date told Victoria Derbyshire she was "gobsmacked" to learn primary-age children were capable of sex abuse.
She said she wanted to make people aware and called for policy advice to help schools and social services cope.
One charity - Mosac, which helps parents and carers of abused children - says calls about this issue have risen from 27 in 2013 to 58 in 2017.
