I personally feel that everyone is affected by child abuse. I am a grown woman of 35 years. My husband is affected by my past, as are my children. My everyday life making decisions are effected by my past. The way I relate to the general public, be it in a store or at the park is effected by my past. I consciously make decisions everyday to not be like my Father. I will not put up with belittling or disrespect to others of any kind. I constantly teach my 4 children to love and respect one another, to not judge people they do not know. I teach them how to be better friends and siblings to one another. I am constantly trying to teach my 13 year old to not be the child is school making fun of others just to fit in. It's always about respect and empathy; it's the fact that he does not know the kind of home life some of the kids at school have. I believe that child abuse affects many people in many walks of life. Thank you to God for those who will never know what this is like, and thank you to God for helping me to turn my own memorries, pain, and fears around to help my children and others to break the chain.

Gil's theory was based on his research in the 1970's, that child abuse was related to social class and that psychological explanations of abuse on their own were too narrow based as it underestimated the stress from society through poverty etc. Gil's theory also mentions that the state is also to blame through policy making making such inequalities. hope this helps a little.

What is the positivist thought on child abuse?
I personally was abused for a while as a child and I didn't get anything "positive" out of it. But it did make me think when I was older not to treat others that way. Guess it was lucky because brutality does breeds brutality. If I had to say one thing positive about child abuse, it would be...nothing. Its a terrible thing to have to go through. If someone else has a "positive" thing to say about child abuse I would love to hear them try and say it. Without them having to think twice about it anyways...
