According to the U.S. GAO, more than 5 children per day die as a direct result of child abuse; 80% of children who die from child abuse are under 4 years old. And, 90% percent of children sexually abused know their perpetrator. Nearly 11% of all child abuse is physical. Approximately 8% is sexual.
PREVENTIONANDPROSECUTION. Child abuse is widespread. It occurs at every socioeconomic, ethnic, religious and cultural strata of society. And, it is wrong!
But, what value as a society are we willing to place on protecting and preserving innocent young human life? Or, should we simply continue turning our heads now in exchange for greater problems later? We must ask ourselves, as a nation,"What's a child worth?"
