We all know the feeling you get inside when you got yelled at when you were a small, innocent child. Or how you feel when you get ignored while you are talking with your friends, having a laugh. The feelings of scaredness and loneliness eat you out from the inside and you can’t bear the pain as tears threaten to fall. There are people who are unfortunate enough to experience these feelings every day to a higher degree, known as abuse. Abuse has always been something that intrigued me. All around the world, there are people who are experiencing abuse at any given moment. You never know if someone who is close to you, someone who you see every day, is experiencing abuse. And that is a huge problem that needs to be fixed as soon as possible. There is no way to stop all abuse that goes on in the world, let alone Hawaii. According to Hawaii Says No More, there are nearly 6,000 suspected cases that are reported in Hawaii annually. Every day 575 domestic violence survivors in Hawaii seek support from local programs. In Hawaii alone, 50,000 women between the ages of 18 and 64 are victims of domestic violence yearly. 1 in 7 women in Hawaii has been a victim of rape in their lifetime. Think about it. There is a population of about 953,207, according to World Population Review. That is about 136,173 women, in Hawaii alone, who will have been a victim of rape. If nothing is done, these numbers will continue to grow. Alcohol and drugs are two variables that play a
The effects of any type of abuse are appalling and need to end due to the serious risks for anyone that’s involved. It would be in society’s best interest to acquire knowledge on the different types of abuse and the signs. To understand the effects and dangers that come from abuse.

I have heard them all. I have heard all the reasons why parents don't discuss child sexual abuse prevention with their children. I have heard them so often that I can recite them by heart. As the new year approaches, I decided it would be a good idea to memorialize the top 10 reasons for not discussing the subject. I invite you to add any that may have been omitted.
Imagine that people of all ages are being harassed just because of not only their sexuality, but their identity. LGBTQ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer. Individuals that are apart of this organization are bullied at work, school and even everyday life. Some dislike the LGBTQ because it goes against their religion so they choose to be mean.People bully, harass, and violate LGBTQ human rights because they don’t agree with who they are. Bullying LGBTQ is wrong because no one should be subjected to cruel treatment.
Everyday children under the age of 18 are maltreated. One out of eight children throughout the U.S suffers from either physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. Unfortunately, emotional abuse is not even considered a maltreatment when people think of child abuse. When people think of child abuse the first thing they think about is physical or sexual. Now do not get me wrong, any abuse a child receives is a horrible inhuman like thing because every child is innocent and deserves to live the best life they possibly can live. Although, if we are being quite honest with ourselves nobody really notices this happens until it is mentioned later on when the child gets older. Which I do not blame anyone for because a child does not recall if something is good or bad until they have the ability to be aware of their environment.This is due to the fact that child abuse can start occurring at such an early age. This happens most during the development stage of the child because when a child is young it starts to absorb everything it sees and hears based on their surroundings. Basically, when they start noticing the difference from good or bad. The problem in this situation is that there is a high percentage rate of the youth who are diagnosed with mental disorders and are not being helped properly because most of the time the adults around them do not know how to help. The solution to this problem is simple, we should bring awareness to the main people in the child's life: their
United States, “The Land of the Free and Home of the Brave,” is known as the “Land of Opportunity,” but for what? Child abuse? Did you know that about five children die a day from child abuse, or even that over three million reports of child abuse are made each year in the United States?
Abuse is a serious issue in people’s lives. We should be more aware of it. We should see the Signs. People don’t take abuse serious enough because people don’t like to talk about it. The people that go through it feel ashamed, and they think that it’s not a problem. People think they should suck it up and take it. They think it’s there is something wrong with them. There isn’t anything wrong with them; they should be able to tell their story. Doesn’t matter what type of abuse you go through, sexual, physical, or mental. It’s real and it’s not your fault. People who are abused are more likely to engage is serious crime than anyone else. So if we don’t pay attention it can get worse then what it already is. Abuse no matter the type
Persuasive Essay Child Abuse Child abuse is a growing concern in America that must be dealt with. In recent years, the problem has seemed to increase drastically. Child abuse could decrease if comminutes worked together to find a solution. The first step to eliminating child abuse is for communities to take action and report abuse when it occurs. Although a person knows that abuse is occurring, may be afraid to report it, even though it is usually the best thing for every one involved (Mufson Kranz). A lot of time abuse goes unreported because people experience feelings of fear, guilt, or shame (Mufson Kranz). Although these feelings have a tendency to get in the way of better judgement, people need to see through these emotions and report obvious cases of child abuse. Child abuse goes unreported because many times, people do not know how to report it. The most frightening occurrence of reporting abuse may be what happens after it is reported. Once a case is reported, a social worker or doctor may examine the child or the family (Mufson Kranz). What happen after abuse is reported is frightening, but is an important aspect of resolving the problem. The children that are hurt are also afraid of what might happen if and when the abuse is reported. Many children find many ways to deal with the abuse they are receiving. Some keep journals or talk to sympathetic friends while others call hot lines. Other children just simply leave home (Mufson Kranz). All of these children that
Imagine being a child who is afraid of their own parents or legal guardians. Imagine being a child who has to live with the fear of getting harmed physically or mentally every single day of their life. Imagine being a child who doesn’t even safe in their very own home. This is how a children feel when they’re put into a abusive atmosphere. We truly cannot understand someone’s pain until we are the ones experiencing that very same pain. Can you even imagine being abused by love ones? What would you do? Would you keep your mouth shut in fear or stand up up for what is right? Child abuse needs to stop now. “If not now, when.” No child should have to go through an emotional rollercoaster at such a young age. “The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”
You see human beings doing stuff for no reason or just because they feel like it. Most never have a reason they just do it out of spite. People minding their business still get caught in the crossfire, “A justified fear of Trump does not justify violence against an individual just trying to leave a rally.”(Newkirk), you could be minding your own business and still get caught in the middle of violence. Protesters see people fighting in protest because it gets heated and people just gets irritated with each other, most are so stubborn that they only believe what they believe. When violence occurs more violence follows. While some others think that violence is justified there are multiple reasons why it’s not.

Put yourself in this position: It early in the morning and you are on your way to work and on the way you stop to get a paper and some coffee. You stop to look at the paper for a second. On the front page you see your name along with a list of women you’ve never met before claiming you raped them.

So you drop them off again, pick them up and your child is complaining that the babysitter touched them in inappropriate ways. You confront them for the second time and they deny then you say “i’m having you arrested because you molested my child.” They take her to jail and press charges. After that you never see her again. This story defines child abuse and sexual abuse. The adult raped her and abused her. Her mom acted towards her child and spoke up. This is sexual abuse. Rape. This needs to put a stop to it.
