America is #1....in Child Abuse...

[lizard81288]

The United States has the highest child abuse record in the industrialized world. The statistics behind an ''epidemic'' of child deaths state every five hours a child dies from abuse or neglect in the U.S., the BBC investigation reveals.

Every week, 66 children under 15 die from physical abuse or neglect in the developed world, 27 of them in the U.S. However, the statistics with both regard to the numbers and ways of abuse varies from state to state.

The BBC’s journalist Natalia Antelava reports while the Dallas Children's Medical Center deals with a rising number of abused children and increasing levels of violence, the Houston Center is expanding its services to deal with the rising problem of child sex abuse.

This is why those who want to have kids should have to get a license after an intensive testing period to avoid these things.

You really think its a good idea to give the government of the day say-so over who gets to have kids?

Historically, that kind of power has ended very badly.

Hey, we need licenses for other animals, so why not children?

Besides, I'm all for somebody telling the majority of people they can't breed and being able to enforce it.

Children reflect all the things we don't want to see in ourselves; and for that, they must be punished.

Seriously though These Statistics are baloney , If Child abuse is #1 anywhere, that would be in Africa , WHERE THEY RAPE BABIES.

The reason is pretty evident, you shouldn't need help to find the answer yourself

[Aeolus Aeneas]

Because our society cares more about domesticated animals that are pets and their care than children.

Though to be fair, both are mindless animals.

The quote by the op said industrialized world, of course they wouldn't include the poor parts of the world. They're over looked in quite a bit of things unfortunately. Actually I would have guessed China just by virtue of numbers.

Gee, it's nice to have another obtuse fucktard roaming around here.

China does seem like a likely place doesn't it?

Wrong. But I won't be the one wasting his time trying to discuss with an adult mindless animal.
