Child abuse can be define into sexual, emotional, or neglect of children. That gives potential harms and dangers to children. Children are the most important assets for us to continue our generations in the future. To achieve a better future, early education must be given from the early stage of their age. Talking about the very common abusive towards children that frightening the public, an awareness should be given to the public that donning should be done by donning a campaign, talks, distribution of flyers and etc.

Parents and responsible public, awareness level should be put at a higher state. To make sure their wants be understood by us. Be a good company and spending time to them will also makes them felt secured and being cared by parents. Choosing a way to be too strict to children is a debatable way to educate them. An education about parenting should be public to everyone, to make sure everyone is concern about children.
The articles discussed here is to find out the causes of abuses among the children. Abusive amongst children is very common issues nowadays, and the latest news is the death of a baby by the careless and irresponsible people.

The failures of managing anger also giving a huge cause to abusive of child, as they failed to manage their stress child is the place for them to release their stress.

Childhood is a time of critical growth in which proper nutrition is absolutely necessary, children who have poor diet, whether because of lacking of food or pattern eating may lead to insufficient intake of nutrient for body needs and balance.
