So how should a child be treated? :)
Posted Thursday, June 30, 2011 // 5:55 AM
All children are special and should be treated as such.After reading about the different types of the child abuse, we will be explaining more on how a child should be treated. Children, being young and immature want to feel a sense of security and an arm of protection. They need to feel like they are loved. Parents should take time off to spend some bonding time with their child, and not get their head buried in work and leave the child feeling neglected. The parents may think :'' Oh it doesn't really matter they can play with their toys". But NO. The way you treat the child plays a very important role in the child's development. Neglect, when taken to a larger scale, can cause even more damage to the child's development. So, the message we're trying to get across is to spend more time with your children.  Many a times, when a child makes a mistake, the parents end up hitting or physically hurting the child as their way of disciplining them. Parents are usually under a great deal of stress and have all the anger bottled up inside of them. By physically punishing the child, it gives the parents a way of releasing their anger and venting it on an innocent child. Yes, it is important to discipline a child when he/she has done something wrong but some parents abuse this right and vent all of their anger on the child. This is not something a parent should do. As the saying goes ''Monkey see, Monkey do", it applies to how the children see and follow what their parents do. There is a high chance that the child may end up physically abusing their own child in the future. Physical abuse would leave the child with painful and scarring memories. In the long run, the child may also become emotionally unstable and end up abusing their own child. So, treat your child right. There are other ways of disciplining them without actually hurting them.  Last but not least, treat your child with RESPECT. Children are also human beings. They have their own civil rights. Forcing them to do something that they do not wish to do is wrong. Yes, we are talking about sexual abuse. Sexual abuse is by far one of the most cruel way of abusing a child. Using the child as a form of sexual stimulation. Sexual abuse will leave a lot of scars in the child's life. Children usually suffer in silence and are helpless as their parents have control over them and they just endure and endure, not knowing they can actually get help. Treat your child with respect. They deserve that.  Now that you have learnt how you should treat your child, TREAT THEM RIGHT! :D |
