Abuse/Neglet

Why is abuse being bad?? Well it is because there are different ways in which you can abuse people. These include:


  • Sexual

  • Verbal

  • Physical

  • Mental

The two links below informs of what types of abuse there is, some are what i have include above.


http://www.brokenspirits.com/information/forms_of_abuse.asp - This is an online community that focuses on current and past victims of different forms of abuse


http://www.devon.gov.uk/index/socialcare/older_people/adult-protection/appg/ap-alert-guide/ap-alert6.htm - This is Devons Council site that has a Social Care and Health section and this lists the different forms of abuse and the signs of them.



Why do people get negleted? Why does the person abuse or/and neglet the victim?


Some may say it is due to control. Some say that it is past events, such as a troubled childhood that influences of the person being an abuser. The link below gives some example and explains why for the reasons of these examples.

A good example of neglect and abuse, which has been in the papers and news is about the young women that had been trapped and rapped by her father, Josef Fritzl and fathered at least 6 children from her. This case isnt just rape, but its abuse and neglect.

Another form of abuse is neglet and which was in the papers was the case of kidnapped Shannon Matthews which was later discovered that her mother had planned it, shows that it is a serious matter. Shannon Matthews mother was arressted and sentanced. Its horrible to think that young children go through this and most cases are not known.
