Child Abuse

           Imagine your parents physically abusing you all the time in your own home. It’s hard to think anyone would ever do that to their child, but people do. It’s a hard problem to try to solve, because kids don’t come forward and say they are being abused. People are trying to figure out a way to get victims to step forward and say something without them feeling embarrassed or like they are disobeying their parents. Social workers are trying to solve and stop the abusing when the victim is young, so that they don’t turn out to be just like the parent. This can be dangerous in many ways. The victim might try to take out their childhood anger by abusing their child, or maybe even murder.  
        There are a lot of  people in the world and it all starts from being raised by a crazy parent, not feeling loved, or being depressed. If you think a child is being abused, call a social worker, or counselor. Be nice to them and be their friend. That way they feel more comfortable around you and they might tell you more. Kids that are being abused are not only scared because they think their parents will be ashamed, they are scared their life is going to fall apart. They don’t want to live in a foster home. People are working hard to try to get to the bottom of child abuse. Without it the world would be such a better place.
