Child Abuse Poster.

Child Abuse.

Recently my reading group has been debating on the topic of Child Abuse, for one of our tasks we had do a report on it.

This report is about Child Abuse and states whether it is a good thing or a bad thing to do.

A report of child abuse is made every 10 seconds, almost 4 children die every day to child abuse. And 30% of abused children will later abuse their children.

Although Child Abuse is against the law some parents still assault their children, sometimes so badly, they end up in hospital with injuries ranging from head trauma to broken legs.

Abusing a child can have a very bad mental effect on the child such as Anxiety, Depression, Dissociation, Difficulty concentrating, Academic problems in school aged-Aged children and adolescents, Withdrawnness and/or difficulty connecting with others, Flashbacks and Increased Hyper-vigilance.

The consequences for assaulting a child is a life time requirement as a child abuser, Termination of parental rights, Ruined reputation, Criminal record, Supervised access with the child, Physical or actual loss and enjoyment of a child and Continual involvement with a child protective services agency.
