Elder Abuse

There is no specific statistic on the number of kids who commit suicide in the US solely because of cyberbullying. Suicide is a complex issue with multiple contributing factors, and cyberbullying can be one of them. It's important to address mental health concerns and provide support to children who experience cyberbullying.

Older people in communities often live in retirement communities, assisted living facilities, or nursing homes. Some may choose to stay in their own homes with the help of in-home caregivers or family members. It varies depending on their health and support needs.

There is no fixed number of people. It depends on the size and capacity of the home.

Alcohol abuse is cause by some interconnected factors, like genetics, how you're family raised you, your emotions and the people around you. If you have a family history of heavy drinkers, it would be possible for you to acquire the habit. In addition, those individuals who suffer depression, anxiety or even bipolar disorder are also at risk because alcohol can be used to medicate the problem.

character building is basically how you bring up yourself.It is important so that you can try to be independent and don't need to depend on anyone and that you have self esteem

THE CAUSES OF POVERTY IN UGANDA:

· Half the population in Uganda don't have clean and safe drinking water.

· Uganda is one of the poorest countries in the world.

· Uganda suffers a lack of education.

· Uganda suffers from poor health services as well as poor public services.

· Half of Uganda's population are under 15.

· Children eat only if they can afford it.

Theres a cause for every action a child (or grown adult) takes. Chances are if your child is abusing you its something you do or neglect to do.

I've known elders to be abused because their caretakers had little to no patience. In working with others, especially children and elders, one must have a lot of patience.

Not all old people smell. Many old people who DO smell, however, get the smell from medications they have to take, or the old (yucky smelling) combo of Ben-gay and baby-powder. It can also come from decaying teeth, not taking baths regularly (because they can't do it on their own), not washing their clothes, and not cleaning their possessions. Another reason why old people smell is because they don't eat enough fresh food. When you only eat cooked food, toxins build up in your body, are secreted through sweat, and then emit a foul odor. The same effect could be caused by not exercising enough, because exercise helps eliminate toxins, that are then washed off in a shower. It could also be caused by moth balls, but moth balls aren't as prominent as they used to be. Many Grandpa's I know smell like old spice shaving lotion, good quality pipe tobacco, and cinnamon tooth paste. Gandma's smell of sunlight soap, lilacs or lily of the valley purfume and fresh baked bread. And when you need someone to comfort you, they are the smells of safety. Your question generalizes and is totally unfair.

• No, it is not illegal to verbally abuse a man, but if the man was smart he would leave. Verbal abuse can leave just as many scars for a victim as physical abuse. There are programs for abused men that they should attend and learn tools in order to get out of the verbally abusive situation. Example: If a wife is verbally abusing her husband and he decides to divorce her and he can prove she is verbally abusing him then the court could press charges against her (highly unlikely) but you would be granted a divorce.

Step one is to go to the police. If you don't know how to contact them, pick up the phone and dial 911. Say you would like to report a domestic dispute and that you would like to remain secret as far as your identity is concerned. This way you don't need to worry about anyone coming after you.

This is going to depend on the area you live in. Injury HelpLine Attorney will help you to find the attorney you are looking for in your area. They will narrow down your search based on the type of case.

• Individuals who are physical or verbal in nature have a set pattern. Many abusers can be charming; likable; win over family members of the person they are going out with. Little by little the abuser's pattern of control over their victim (and they are a victim of an abuser) can simply be as innocent as telling the prospective victim what to wear or not to wear or, telling the person what to order in a restaurant. The control at the beginning is so minor that the prospective victim is not even aware of it. The abuser will control with one hand and perhaps give gifts with the other leading the victim innocent to the fact they are starting to be controlled. It is a myth that poverty stricken individuals to uneducated people are abused and media noted individuals (and in all aspects of life) can be abused. Slowly the abuser segregates his victim from their family and friends and eventually, if they choose to live together or marry the abuser will be sure to live some distance away from the victim's family. As the months go on the abuser then psychologically works on his victim causing the victim to feel disorientated; guilty; demoralized and has a great lack of confidence. Sometimes the abuse is physical and 'the slap' at first, by the abuser, was a 'mistake' and the victim believes it will never happen again as the abuser has apologized, but it does happen over and over again and the beatings can become worse. If the couple should go out in public the abuser holds a tight rein and threatens the victim to act normal as if nothing were wrong. The victim always accepts what the abuser says because they do not want to be physically harmed. Some abusers can go so far as to threaten the person's life; that of any children they may have together or even the victim's immediate family. To the abuser the victim is chattel (their property) which they feel gives them the right to treat the victim as they wish. It is also a myth that only men abuse women, but the statistics are showing that women can also abuse men. Most men are brought up not to strike a woman and do not and it leaves the male victim in a difficult situation. Males are not the type that would tell friends that their girlfriend or wife are physically attacking them or verbally abusing them as men have basically been brought up as being the dominant one physically and only women are abused. So, the male victim is left to fend for himself and do the best he can. Like the female victim he will cover up any sign of abuse because of shame and the guilt of letting it happen. There are Abuse Centers for both women and men in many States and in Canada.

Elder abuse is on the rise because baby boomers are now in that category. Sometimes it's family abuse going full circle - abusive parents who become dependant on their children because of age are frequenly abused by those children because it's how the family functions. Abusive treatment could also come from a caretaker at a nursing home or a stranger who takes advantage financially or intimidates an elder. Like most abuse statistics, if you find one on elder abuse it will be an estimate. Most abuse goes unreported and uncounted. ____________________________________________________________ The National Center on Elder Abuse estimated that more than a million (1,000,935) seniors suffered abuse or neglect in a single year.

• Caregivers of parents is an extremely difficult job especially when the elderly parent could have Dementia or Alzheimer's. Dementia and Alzheimer's makes the elderly parent paranoid (they really believe what they say is happening to them); they can sometimes be destructive; wander away from home; lash out verbally and physically at their caregiver or tell other members of the family how terribly they are treated when, in fact, they are not. It is often the best no matter how painful to put the elderly parent into a decent nursing home where trained nurses can handle the situation and medications can safely be given to help the elderly patient have some peace of mind. Try to remember that your elderly parent is now a shadow of their former self and they drift in and out of recognizing you or, they may possibly not remember you at all and remember another member of the family or even one of your friends and this is no reflection on you. Try to remember the good memories you had with your elderly parent instead of how they are behaving now.

• The elderly who are very ill have little control of what happens to them. Some elderly may have suffered a stroke or are too ill to speak and have suffered abuse either by one or more of their adult children or even some nurses in nursing homes (more common that one thinks.) If an elderly person has not been proven to be of sound mind (and they may well not be of sound mind) family; some lawyers or people of power can fool an elderly person to sign over finances they may have or property and the elderly person is not aware of what they are signing. If at home either the caregiver; some cleaning people; even some nurses who come into the home may steal jewelry or money from that elderly person. Not all caregivers; nurses or any other professional is bad, but there are some out there that consider an elderly person is closer to death than not so why not get what they can from them.

No.

Only a few states still recognize alienation of affection. An alienation of affection lawsuit is where a spouse sues their spouse's mistress/lover, claiming that the "other man/woman" destroyed the marriage. These are also sometimes called home wrecker lawsuits. Even in the few states that still allow such a claim, a victory is rare.

• It is sometimes difficult to identify verbal or physical abuse. With children sometimes one child may not respond to being sent to their room as punishment and the parent or parents may have to use other forms of punishment such as spanking on the behind (not slapping, kicking, punching or using an item other than the hand to spank that child.) Some people today feel that spanking a child is wrong, but statistics prove that children who were properly spanked (not beaten up) had fewer problems in every day life than children who were cajoled through their lives or 'given things' to basically keep them quiet and happy for just a little while, without resolving the problems. Parents are divided between whether they should spank to 'it's wrong to spank.' Verbal abuse is difficult to prove and leaves no physical scars, but does do damage mentally to that individual. It can take away their self esteem; self confidence and leave them feeling as if they are not important to anyone in this world. The saddest part is verbal and mental abuse was the mind set that men could not be abused because it was drilled into society that men were stronger and obviously be more physically abusive towards a woman, but, it has been found in many studies in just over the past 10 years that indeed men can be verbally and physically abused. Most good men are brought up to not hit a woman and thus they do not. Because of the social feelings of men being more dominant when it comes to physical abuse these male victims often will not reveal they are being abused to family or friends and seldom seek help by the Abused Men's Program and psychiatric counseling. It can be difficult for female/male to prove verbal abuse because there can be a gray area. Example: A woman can nag at her husband for not fixing things around the house to not paying enough attention to her and a man can complain that his wife is out all the time; a poor housekeeper, etc., but this does not constitute hard core verbal abuse. All couples can nag at each other and it is normal to get into the odd argument. Then there is elder abuse. The elderly are at the mercy of their children, proper medical care and some Nursing Homes have been reported as not giving good care and injuring their elderly patients. When a caregiver (be it a daughter or son) is constantly looking after an elderly parent that has many health problems or may be suffering from Alzheimer's it is constant care leaving the daughter or son without free time for themselves (especially if they are also raising children) and frustration can set in where the daughter or son (without much help from the rest of the family) may become so frustrated they may try to force feed their parent; not feed their parent; hit; wrench arms or legs (generally the elderly suffer from arthritis and are tender to the touch); not bathe them and this constitutes physical abuse. There comes a time when the siblings of that parent must come together and decide when the time is right for their parent to enter into a nursing home for better care. Often this causes tension in the family. Some daughters/sons, etc., that are trying their best to look after a parent become frustrated; angry because they do not feel they are getting help; become confused and worn out to the point they do not know what programs are available to help them out and thus, the daughter or son becomes depressed and eventually abusive towards their parent. Other sibling may just neglect their parent and basically (hard to believe, but true in some cases) are waiting for their inheritance or may steal jewelry or other items from their aging parents and in their mind set confirm to themselves it is not wrong because their parent is going to die anyway and why not take what you can get before someone else in the family gets it. This happens more often than one can believe. Men abusing women is more open to the public eye and it can be far more severe and can lead to murder in some cases (or accidental murder.) Hitting or punching and the woman hits her head on something causing death is 'accidental murder', but planning to do away with one's wife and possibly children is murder in the first degree. If the wife chooses to not file a complaint against her husband (most women do not because the laws to protect women at this point are extremely weak and only infuriate their abuser more) then there is not evidence of physical abuse. The male will segregate the female from her family and friends with the mind set of 'what happens in MY house stays in MY house' so often others are not aware a woman is abused.
• What makes abuse really hard to prove is because 1) it is based on human testimony and 2) it is based on human interpretation of what is right or wrong. While some parents think that it is completely okay to beat their children halfway to death, others feel that even giving their child a stern look is wrong.

So far, the most technical hardstyle song is Dark Symphony - Spastic Dragon. In saying that, their new album "Spastic Zoo" the most longly anticipated album of all time, which will revolutionize hardstyle, will be out within weeks, therefore making The Zoo Keeper the most technical hardstyle song to vibrate it's sound waves across the very earth itself.

The complexity of the time signitures, the riff structure and most of all, the lyrics, will be so rediculously technical you will have to hire new ears out from the doctor surgery to be able to handle the technical output of musical genious behind this music.

There are lots of unwritten rules of etiquette in a nursing home, some of which include:

* No sponge baths before 6am

* Only one game of bingo per day

* Never give anyone their pills if they are wearing clown make-up.

* Muesli can only be served at breakfast time

• If you have been trained correctly then you should know how to treat the elderly in a care home and protect yourself at the same time. You already know you are dealing with Alzheimer's and other diseases effecting the brain where the elderly person is not aware they are striking out or hurting their caregiver. Generally mild sedation is often required.

If a fat person sits on you, you could shoot them depending on the weight of your "fat person". There is a law that will help you with this called the weight range law. If the person is from the weight range of 300-350 you could shoot, but it would take 26 bullets to kill 'em. If your person is in the range of 350-500. It would take 196 rounds of bullets to kill them. If your person is between the range of 500+, Nice knowin' ya. (;
