It is likely that they have a more reasonable definition of 'abuse' or that there is simply more reports in the US.Even within the US, the definition of child abuse varies from state to state. The reporting and data collection methods in China are very different than the US methodology. And as previously mentioned, the definitions of child abuse differ.
Mostly yes.. but the government is finding out a solution thanks for asking!
The conviction rate for spousal abuse in the US can vary significantly depending on various factors such as the jurisdiction, the strength of evidence, and the willingness of victims to testify. Conviction rates may range from 50% to 70%, but it is important to note that spousal abuse cases can be challenging to prosecute due to lack of evidence or victims recanting their statements.
Yes, because our basic understanding of human anatomy is definitely a part of biology, and this understanding allows us to know how much force is required to create the injuries seen in child abuse situations.
In cases of Child Abuse, most States invoke a high level of privacy for the victim. In many cases, this survives the death of the victim. As such, these names are not readily available to us.
According to a report by the Every Child Matters Education Fund, Kentucky has the highest child abuse death rate with more than 4 deaths per 100,000 children yearly and 41 deaths in 2007. Other states with high child abuse death rates include South Dakota, Florida, Nebraska and Missouri. Every year 3 million child abuse cases are reported in the United States.
Answer There is no way for us to know the answer to your question as not everyone reports abuse.
As opposed to leaving the child in the care of a dangerous mother with convictions of fatal child abuse? It full depends on the circumstances of the case. Is it in the best interest of the child that he have custody?
Maybe. "Abuse" is does not have a precise meaning. Instead, it depends on the totality of the situation. In the US, it is illegal to tattoo a child at 13, even with parental consent in most (all?) states. Assuming this is in the US, the tattoo would have to be given illegally. Subjecting your child to a back alley tattoo is certainly not acceptable parenting, but may or may not be abusive.
tell us what is happening, and maybe we can help
Child abuse laws in all US states includes the broad category of "neglect". Withholding food as punishment is not only indirect physical abuse, but also neglect and emotional abuse. If you know a child whose parents use food as punishment, you should report this to the authorities. All children deserve to have their needs met. It is a parent's responsibility to feed and nourish a child. This includes access to fluids / drinks.
