Manga That Tackle Child Abuse

I recently viewed a news video on NHK english program about a manga company that is tackling child abuse in Japan.
They are printing a manga story about a news reporter who is investigating child abuse and how he comes to the rescue of the children.
The manga will not show the abuse of the children but will show the aftermath of what the child had done to them.
I would hope in Japan that there are manga about bullying and prevention of such.

It's awesome that there's a manga company that wants to specifically deal with heavy issues like that. I know a few that do, like Bitter Virgin, Hoshi wa Utau, and Loveless, and then there are manga that tackle similar issues like bullying- such as Confidential Confessions, Vitamin, Life, Happy Tomorrow, Koko ni iru yo!
