Now, I don't know who reads this, One thing I need to make clear is
that I am saying nothing but my own opinion on what I think child abuse
is and the signs they would give off due to my own personal experience,
which I'm not going to go into.
What do children mean to you? Are they just a nuisance? Or are they a symbol of joy and happiness? To me, a child is someone that needs to be treasured, not everybody is capable to bring a child into this world. Sometimes, the wrong people bring children into this world and mistreat them. There are many forms of child abuse. There's verbal, physical, mental, emotional, and even sexual. There are many signs in a child's behavior that could point to them being abused. Like flinching when someone makes a fast sudden movement like raising their hand up. To them being extremely quite and not wanting to get involved in anything. Or you wont even be able to tell at all because they'd try to hide it by acting like it's not even happening. Sometimes they'd be able to speak up for themselves, others would be to scared to, they'd let the fear of being hurt even more and keep to themselves, not knowing that it'd end up being the death of them. Fear, eats people alive. To overcome a fear, can be challenging, especially for a child. The signs are all there. You just need to learn what to look for.
Abuse goes in cycles, starting from childhood. Children learn from the adults they're surrounded by and pick up the littlest things, the bad things and think it's ok to act that way. Children are so fragile and open minded, willing to learn and wanting to know what everything and anything is. Children are what makes the next generation. If you want the world to be better, keep violence out of a child's life and teach them right from wrong the correct way. Don't yell or beat them, cause they'll only think that it's ok to do that with their kids in the future. Sometimes people can break out of that abusive cycle they were brought into and that right there is a huge start, breaking that cycle.
I'm against Child Abuse. I always have been, and I always will be.
