Child Abuse
Sometimes the line between instilling discipline and enforcing punishment for bad behavior blur into a murky area; what is acceptable and what is abuse? This collection of essays presents even-sided discussions about topics relating to child abuse. Chapter one sets out to define what constitutes child abuse. Chapter two examines the causes of it. Chapter three explains its impact on its victims, and chapter four explains methods that may prevent child abuse. Sources include ParentalRights.org, Harvard Mental Health Letter, and the U.S. Department of Justice.
