Discipline will not work if parents do not have a good relationship with their child This highlights how spanking a child will weaken the respect that is needed between child and parent. In turn, the child does not know that he/she did anything wrong because the child has no respect for the parent any more. These examples show how spanking does not teach the child to be good, but it changes the way that children approach
While physical abuse is very noticeable and very visible, other types of abuse also leave deep, long lasting scars. Another way to help prevent child abuse everywhere is learn signs of child abuse. Unexplained bruises bite marks, cuts, anti-social, or burns are signs of physical abuse. Feelings of depression, Isolation from friends and family, withdraw from social reaction, low self-esteem, mood changes, not trusting others, self-blaming, and much more are signs of emotional abuse. Difficulty concentrating, difficulty learning, depression, low self-esteem, Child is always hungry and very thin and poor health is signs of child neglect.
It's just horrible. Regardless if the kids get help by going to the school counselor or even a psychiatrist, that seems to not always help and that's sad! Dieter Wolke also stated, "In the case of bully-victims, it shows how bullying can spread when left untreated." I couldn't agree more with that statement. Bullying just gets worse and worse the more it gets untreated and continues.
It can cause confusion, which can then lead to stress, which can then result in aggressive behavior from the child. Spanking is a form of punishment which typically involves the punisher (usually an adult) striking the person that is being punished (usually a child) either with their hand, a belt, or some other instrument. Spanking is commonly used in situations where adults want the child to immediately stop whatever it is they’re doing wrong, which is why some people would consider spanking to be a good thing. “Spare the rod, spoil the child” is a phrase I’ve heard at least a hundred times throughout my life. This phrase simply means if you don’t give the child a spanking when they deserve it, you’re teaching them that their behavior is ok. A typical spanking (a couple swats with a hand) may be physically harmless; however, it can get out of hand.
It is clear that the child’s mental, physical and psychological needs are not being met in his home environment. The traditional parental role is one of caregiver, role-model, and nurturer. When the father is absent from the home this causes a schism within the home that, if not filled properly, can contribute to the delinquency of a child. The child usually begins exhibiting behaviors such as lying, stealing, misbehaving in school, and fighting. If not checked these behaviors accelerate into anti-social behavior directed towards other children and the community.
Physical abuse This is when a child is being physically abused this could include hitting, smacking, punching, kicking or include objects being thrown at them. This causes pain to them and leaves marks- this type of abuse can even lead to death The signs and symptoms of abuse include- -marks on the body -refusal to undress -running away from home -fear of physical contact -distressed -not wanting to do any medical examination Some marks you see on children can be just genuine injuries as children are always bound to have accidents. However this does not mean that we can’t keep an eye on them. In my setting if a child has a mark on their body whether it being suspicious or not we ask the parent what they did- most parents tell you before you ask and the majority of the time you are like yes okay that fine sometimes you may thing that they are not telling you the truth. If we have a child having repeat marks on their body or suspicious marks then we body map this and store it.
All children have accidents, like bumps and falls, which cause injury. However, you may have reasons for thinking that an injury has been inflicted on purpose if: • an injury strikes you as odd • a child is injured repeatedly • a parent delays seeking treatment • a parent or child gives unconvincing or inconsistent explanations about an injury. Indicators in the context of safeguarding are Physical abuse, bruises to the eyes, mouth, or ears, grasp mark, and bruises of different ages in the same place. Outline bruises e.g. hand prints, belts or shoes.
Signs of physical abuse in adults are: bruising, particularly in well-protected and covered areas, burns - including friction burns and scalds, unexplained hair loss, significant weight loss, etc... Symptoms include feeling low, angry and in pain. 2. Sexual abuse is when a person is forced or tricked into taking part in any kind of sexual activity. When sexual contact is non-con-sensual, it is an abuse.
The parents usually do not socialize with other parents because they usually receive negative comments towards their child. Parents who anti-socialize usually channel that aggression to their spouse which results in violent arguments. Schools as well as teachers are also responsible on placing kids with ADHD in an environment where they can perform their best. This is not to segregate the children but to place them in an environment where they can learn their best. Also, if the child does not perform at his/her best, it greatly reduces the self-esteem not only of the child but the parents as well.
It also affects the relationship with other family members. Kids often distance themselves from everyone and do not include themselves in family activities. They feel no one could possible understand what they are going through. When it comes down to a relationship with the opposite sex, trust is often a big issue. Children many times also seek out a significant other that reminds them of their incarcerated parent to fill that void.
