SOLUTION OF CHILD ABUSE

There are a number of ways which I think can contribute in solving child abuse. For example, our legal structure can play an important role in solving this issue. However, as this issue is not under our control therefore, we can raise our voices. It is not necessary that parents of the children are responsible for bad habits in their children. Therefore, do not blame them and encourage them to restrain their children from bad habits.

There are various programs and policies which have also contributed in child abuse. We should explore such programs and policies to work on them. Another thing which I think is the main reason for raising this issue is the media. This creates extremism in people as well. I suggest that we should stop believing on whatever the media says. Try to solve this issue at broader level and do not let it, as it is, by considering it a family problem. The best solution for the child abuse is to support such families which are facing these issues and show your sincere concern to them.

JUST A STORY OF CHILD ABUSE

STORY ABOUT CHILD ABUSE?????.............

"I knew she was in for trouble when she gave him that look, and when he grabbed her throat, I was scared, but I didn't think he would actually hurt her.

"My sister and I had recently moved into our new family - a widower step-father and his 7 children. She was a beautiful young woman with friends and boys chasing her all around our small town, and I was her geek little brother, excelling in all things unpopular and uncool. I had managed to avoid the fists which flew at my step-brothers for months by retreating into my own head, laying low, and hiding, no, erasing all emotion. I figured she was out of danger since she was a girl - I mean, no evil bastard would beat up a girl!

"I had quickly trained myself not to react when I saw him beating my 2nd and 4th grade brothers, putting heads through plaster walls, choking them until they stopped resisting, threatening their lives into submission. Reacting urged it on. 'I'll give you something to cry about.' 'Wipe that look off your face, or I'll wipe it for you.'

"I remember the feeling I experienced when I saw him put his fist to her face and watched the blood pour out of her nose and lips - my beautiful sister. How would she live with such fear and unhappiness? How would she face school, friends, life? I knew the meaninglessness of life - I wanted to die in the act of torturing and killing him. I split in two and lost myself entirely. The next thing I remember was staring up at an enormous booted leg which led from my neck to his head and the ceiling beyond. I heard him say, 'You will NOT call that number. They will carry you out in a body bag.'

TREATMENT OF CHILD ABUSE

Victims of childhood abuse seek therapy for a number of reasons, but rarely just because of the history of abuse. Many survivors minimize the effects of the abuse. Therapists see clients for eating disorders, depression, anxiety disorders, substance abuse disorders and more who have histories of abuse. It is important to help the client deal with the abuse as well as the psychological problems they report. Counseling in the form of individual and possibly group therapy can take two years or longer. The goal of undoing life-long damage can be very difficult because the damage pervades every aspect of the client, and because there may be physiological changes to the client that can't just be "counseled" away. Medication can be useful for the symptoms of depression, anxiety and other symptoms, but should never be dispensed in the absence of counseling for the root of the problem. Later the survivor may need to undergo couples or relationship counseling when he or she heals to the point of finding a long-term relationship. For children, play therapy and family therapy can be helpful.

CAUSES OF CHILD ABUSE

• Family structure

Certain types of families have an increased risk of child abuse and neglect. However, single parents families usually earn less money than other families. So this may account for the increased risk of child abuse. Families with chronic marital discord or spousal abuse have higher rates of child abuse than families without these problem. In addition, families in which either the husband of wife dominates in making important decisions. Such as where to live, what jobs to take, when to have children, and how much money to spend on food and housing- have higher rates of child abuse than families in which parents share responsibility of these decisions.

• Social stress

Stress brought on by a variety of social conditions raises the risk of child abuse within a family. These conditions include unemployment illness, poor housing conditions, a larger than average family size. The presence of a family member. A large majority of reported cases of child abuse come from familiarities living in poverty. Child abuse also occurs in middle class and wealthy family, but it is better reported among the poor several reasons. Wealthier families have an easier time hiding abuse because they have less contact with social agencies than poor families.

• Social isolation and low community involvement.

Parents and caretakers who abuse children tend to be society isolated. Few violent parents belong to any community organizations, and most have little contact with friends or relatives. This lack of social involvement deprives abusive parents of support systems that would help them deal better with social or family stress. Moreover, the lack of community contacts makes the parents less likely to change their behavior to confirm with community contacts the parents less likely to changes their behavior to confirm with community values and standard . Cultural factors often determine the amount of community support a family receives. In cultures with low rates of child abuse, child care is usually considered the responsibility of the community. That is, neighbors, relatives and friends helps with child care when the parents are unwilling or unable. In the United State, parents often shoulder child care demands by themselves, which may result in a higher risk of stress and child abuse.
