Solutions to Child Abuse?

Question by JessicaLauren;: Solutions to Child Abuse?
I am writing this ten page essay about Child Abuse. And my third chapter has to be my solution for it. I can’t really think of any solutions. There really is none. I mean, you can’t have the law living with you, making sure you don’t abuse your child. So, i have listed some preventions. But can anyone give me some feedback? It would be greatly appreciated. This is an intense topic. I just need some solutions. Please and thank you in advance. 🙂
I don’t need to know what to do AFTER the abuse. I need ways to prevent it BEFORE it happens.
See, this is where i am struggling. I can think of multiple ways to help after the abuse, but it is very hard to find ways to prevent it before abuse. I need some help. Anyone?

Is There a Link Between Child Abuse and Drug Abuse?

Question by sarah: Is there a link between child abuse and drug abuse?
I was just curious, if I person is abused as a child (sexually, emotionally, physically) then will it lead to substance abuse (drugs, alcohol, etc.) later in their life?

Best answer:

Answer by Daisy ???
No, drug abuse is a choice. In drug rehabs and therapy these days they almost encourage people to “remember” the abuse.. it MUST have happened. Even if it didn’t.

Bottom line, even the most abused, neglected child can overcome it and become a successful person. Choosing drugs and then blaming it on the abuse is a cop out.
