CHILD ABUSE


“Prosperity and mobility in Asia mean that men wants to have sex with children,” said Readers Digest in its September 2007 about the prevailing child sex slave in Asia . This shameful act is one of the many cases of child abuse that now graces the world.
Child abuse is a deliberate act performed by an adult that results physical or emotion harm to the child. The word “abuse” is multifaceted word, which include actual physical beating by parents to their children or neglecting a child’s need. There are several different types of child abuse, and some children experience more than one form.
Physical abuse includes embracing of violent measures that can harm or kill a child. Evidence of physical abuse include unexplained bruises, broken bones, or burns.
Sexual abuse on the other hand, happens when an adult takes sexual gratification over a child. Sexual abuse may also take place when a child is exposed to sexual activities. It may begin with kissing or petting and end up with more aggressive sexual work, like oral sex, vaginal and anal penetration.
Emotional abuse hampers a child’s self respect. It usually includes repeated verbal cruelty and calling the child words, shouting, or criticizing. Other types of emotional abuse are incarcerating a child inside a dark room or closet and denying him from socializing and making friend.
