We, as a human, should have HUMANITY. We love, we care everyone around of us included animals. We protect our loved one anytime. We show out our loves and cares towards them. Nowadays, child abuse cases are quite often appear in the newspaper. Once we open the newspaper, we will see child sex abuse, neglect, emotional abuse, or physical abuse (Is the most common case). Every children must have their naughty time, we should talk and teach them properly instead of can or scold them. Bare in mind, we should always use a proper ways to treat the little angels. Those little angels are given by God. We have to appreciate them and love them as much as we can.

As what I know, child abuse is the physical or emotional or sexual mistreatment of children. There are a few type of child abuse : -

• Physical abuse is abuse involving contact intended to cause feelings of intimidation, pain, injury, or other physical suffering or bodily harm. This abuse usually are beating with a belt, shoe, or other object; Biting a child; Breaking a child's arm, leg, or other bones; Burning a child with matches or cigarettes; Hitting a child; Kicking a child; Not letting a child eat, drink, or use the bathroom; Pulling a child's hair out; Punching a child; Scalding a child with water that is too hot; Shaking, shoving, or slapping a child.

• Sex abuse refers to contacts or interactions between a child and an adult when the child is being used for sexual stimulation of the perpetrator or another person when the perpetrator or another person is in a position of power or control over the victim. Sexual abuse is any time that a child is engaged in a sexual situation with an older person. It can include actual physical contact, such as fondling or rape, but it also includes making a child watch sexual acts or pornography, using a child in any aspect of the production of pornography, or making a child look at an adult's genitals.

•  Emotional abuse is acts or omissions by the parents or other caregivers that have caused, or could cause, serious behavioral, cognitive, emotional, or mental disorders. In some cases of emotional abuse, the acts of parents or other babysitters alone, without any harm evident in the child's behavior or condition, are sufficient to warrant child protective services (CPS) intervention. For example, the parents/caregivers may use extreme or bizarre forms of punishment, such as confinement of a child in a dark closet.

• Child neglect. This quite common now because of the busy parents lifestyle. So, it caused failure to provide for the child's basic needs. Neglect can be physical, educational, or emotional. Physical neglect includes refusal of or delay in seeking health care, abandonment, expulsion from the home or refusal to allow a runaway to return home, and inadequate supervision. Educational neglect includes the allowance of chronic truancy, failure to enroll a child of mandatory school age in school, and failure to attend to a special educational need. Emotional neglect includes such actions as marked inattention to the child's needs for affection, refusal of or failure to provide needed psychological care, spouse abuse in the child's presence, and permission of drug or alcohol use by the child. 

For me, I hope I would never want to see all these kind of child abuses to happen again!!
Because we are the one who bring those little angels come to this world. Thus, we have the responsibilities to take care and love them. Provide them a good environment to grow up. Make their life become more colorful.

They suppose to live happily in this wonderful world.


 
See~ How happy they are? The problem which cause abuse is rooted from the parents/babysitters. There may thousands of reasons to cause child abuse - abuser has mentality problem, stress, drink too much alcohol and etc. They are our little angels!! Look at they lovely face, do you still have the cruelty thought?




Nowadays, people are getting lesser to feel involved in this society problem. They may think, this is none of my business, I got no time to care about this, as long as it is not happened to me. Or they may just be silence!

You have to ask yourself what you can do to help the children in your community. First and foremost, we need to change our mindset and accept that protecting children is everyone’s business. We all have a role to play, whether we are a parent, relative, neighbour or some stranger. Don’t turn a blind eye. Don’t pass the buck. Get involved. Show up your willingness to be part of the solution by learning more about child abuse and neglect, and understanding what the warning signs are. If you’re worried about a child, don’t be silent, you must do something, you must tell someone.


Consult them if anyone of your family, friend, or neighbour do this. Pick up your phone and report to police if you seen something abnormal happened in the next door or something just happened in front of you. =) Stop this kind of cruelty happen to our little angels!
