The Story Of Dude's Abuse

In American society today we fail to address several issues that need to be addressed. Unfortunately, child abuse is one of the major issues that our country is plagued with, yet we neglect to bring this to the attention of the entire nation. It is often over looked because everyone has a different view of what exactly defines child abuse. The International Child Abuse Network (ICAN) uses four basis catigories to docunment the child abuse cases. They are: emotional abuse, neglect, physical abuse, and sexual abuse. I will be describing the first three.

Healthy relationships involve a variety of different aspects such as respect, trust, and consideration. Unfortunately, some relationships aren’t meant to be healthy and they often turn to abusive relationships. Abuse can be physical, emotional and or sexual. Physical abuse are seen in various ways such as punching, kicking, choking, and or any other form of physical violence intended to hurt the other person. For a person who has experienced an abusive relationship it may be difficult for them to describe those particular feelings and the pain that they’ve gone through. One of the most important and original poets of the twentieth century is known as May Swenson and In her poem “Bleeding” she addresses the important issue that is recurrent in society; she embodies her personal life and illustrates the theme of abusive relationships, and it lets us as the audience gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between an abuser and victim through the significant use of symbolism, form and personification.

Since the time of Adam and Eve, parents have played a major role in upbringing children and reproducing more generations. In most societies, the father has been the backbone of the family and played a major role in providing support and stability to the family. Yet, the role of the father differs from a family to another. While some fathers focus only on feeding and educating their children, others focus on every aspect of their children’s lives. The father’s leadership often drives the children to have a close relationship with the father. Sons often see the father as their role model and build a father-son relationship. Yet, the father-son relationship can be either weak or strong depends on the father’s concept of parenthood. The

Have you ever imagined experiencing abuse as a young child, and living on the streets for a year, and finally becoming an inspirational and successful entrepreneur? Despite all the challenges in Chris Gardner’s past, he was able to overcome the obstacles and achieve his goals. “[He] made up [his] mind as a young kid that when [he] had children they were going to know who their father [was], and that he [wasn’t] going anywhere.

The reported concern is a sexual abuse incident that reportedly occurred between the subject child and a person who is not considered legally responsible for her. An LER was submitted; CPS is to contact NYPD to obtain information regarding their investigation as well as the possible need for a CAC appointment.

David Pelzer was the victim of severe abuse by his alcoholic mother. He suffered from her abuse for eight years before he was rescued by his school nurse and the police. Now he is a successful author, husband and father (Abernethy, 2011). However, some who are abused, are not as successful in their adult lives as he is. Many of those who are or have been abused as a child are greatly impacted by the abuse. As an adult, they must find where they fit into the social world, while still being true to themselves and coping with their past. Though many feel as if they are alone, it has been shown that 14% of adults between the age of 18 and 54 have been mistreated as a child. Low-income families have a higher likelihood of abusing their

Childhood emotional abuse (CEA) appears to be more novel in the research world in comparison to physical and sexual abuse. However, with the research that has been conducted, there are clear suggestions that CEA has similar, if not more severe, consequences to childhood physical abuse (CPA) and childhood sexual abuse (CSA) (Gibb, Chelminski, & Zimmerman, 2007). For instance, research by Gibb and associates (2007) found that participants who reported experiencing CEA were more likely to also have major depressive disorder and social phobia, than those who reported experiencing CPA or CSA. The research by Gibb et al. suggests that CEA may be more detrimental than CPA or CSA to the psychological development of a child. However, what is missing

On Thursday January 26, 2017 I was absent due to the fact I had encountered with the stomach flu or also know as gastroenteritis, an infection of the stomach and intestines. The side effects are: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, cramping, fever, and a headache. That morning I all of those side of effects and I could not get out of the toilet. Consequently, I am a commuter who lives thirty minutes away from school and it was impossible for me to go to even one class that day. I soon realized that I was getting worse throughout the day and needed to get medicine. My cousin Kristen had picked up medicine for me and made me a little better. Thankfully by Saturday I was fully recovered and I will continue to attend this class hopefully

The male partner shows male privilege by making the female partner do the household chores. Such as, cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Both partner’s use emotional abuse when they are upset with each other. They will call each other names, or state the other partner is being stupid if they disagree. The female partner has a three year old son with a previous person who is no longer in the child’s life. The female partner is very protective and does not approve of the male partner bringing the child places that are unfamiliar to the female partner. This has resulted in arguments where the male partner states the female partner cannot have a say about the future children they plan on having together.

Maltreatment is defined as “volitional acts that result or have the potential to result in physical injuries and/ or psychological harm” (Crooks & Wolfe, 2007, cited in Stirling, 2009). There are 2 main types of maltreatment: Relational (happens within a critical relationship) and Non-Relational (happens within a non-critical relationship).

Although all therapists are aware of the childhood emotional abuse issue, it is possible that only few therapists understand the scope of the issue. Emotional maltreatment is harder to detect than other forms of abuse because it is more subtle. When Child Protective Services (CPS) conduct family assessments, it is the hardest form of abuse to prove because parents are very open about the topic and emotional abuse does not leave any physical evidence behind. However, it certainly influences a child's self-esteem, promotes the feeling of guilt, insecurity, and creates the inability to form stable relationships during adulthood. Although some behavioral disorders are related to emotional abuse, it is not possible to predict it correctly

The two types of abuse I will be looking at will be physical and Emotional/Psychological abuse as they both differ from each other. I will be looking at two different case studies where one will be looking at the physical abuse and then the other case study will be different and look at the emotional/psychological abuse.

Becker’s labeling theory consists of three major points; variation over time, who commits the crimes who feels harmed, and finally a variation in consequence. These three topics tie into the child abuse report article quite well. First variation over time is a big point I the child abuse case. There is a prime example of this when they mention the number of child abuse reports in 1963 were a mere 150k and in 1993 they had risen to around three million. Another example is that at one point only physicians who saw extreme cases were allowed to report the abuse while now days it’s a wide variety of people including physicians, teachers and even civilians.

I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA. I come from a place where over 70% of black men are raised in a fatherless home, where domestic violence is something that is a way of showing love. Drugs and alcohol are encouraged or pushed on you to do. Most of the uses are raised in the street, because they are the only men in our life that will pay us some attention.
