    This article discusses the appalling video that made the rounds this week through news and social media. It depicts another instance of elder abuse that was caught on a home security camera. Why is is so difficult to find trustworthy care for the elderly? Most of the time families can't afford to provide adequate care.

    The video is extremely difficult to watch, however, people need to be educated on this ongoing issue. Unfortunately, elder abuse happens worldwide and in different forms. Some types of abuse towards the elderly include financial abuse, physical abuse, and emotional abuse. What concerns me is the fact that there are many caregivers who are abusive and still hold certification to be employed in nursing homes.

    This is a real issue. People take advantage of the elderly because they are helpless. I have heard sad stories about nursing homes as well. They are of course human and deserve to be treated like one.

    I agree we need to take better care of our elderly people, not just to treat them respectfully which should be a given, but to take time to listen to them. Our parents give us life. They take care of us and make sacrifices for us. Then when the time comes, it is our duty to do the same. Beyond that, their lifetime of experience can benefit us all.

    This was very difficult to watch. As a child whose parent was diagnosed with fronto-temporal dementia, I had no choice but to place her in an assisted living home. Even though I didn't live far from the facility, it was hard to get information from staff. A few staff members were there for years, and I feel fortunate that they took really good care of my mother. I don't think this same experience happens for a lot of people.

    Domestic violence is the violent abuse between intimate partners, heterosexual and homosexual relations. Domestic violence can appear as many forms of abuse: emotional, physical, or sexual. Many of the signs of an abuser is the relationship starts out normal but the longer the relationship continuous the partner became more manipulative and controlling. In some instances, both parties attempt to gain and regain control of the other without knowing.

    Every year in Rajasthan, India, an unbelievable number of underage brides are married off illegally by their parents. These girls face severe emotional and physical abuse in most cases, and even though the marriage of a child under the age of 18 is illegal, it is still a prominent practice within the country.

    This article is just upsetting. CPS failed to remove 3 children from their caregivers home after an officer reported concern, several other reports, and signs of neglect. Unfortunately, today only one of the three siblings are alive. CPS should be accountable.

    CPS should be accountable absolutely! In my opinion CPS pursues may cases that are unjustified and neglect the more serious cases that may take a bit more work. It is appalling.

    This story is upsetting. Within the first visit from a social worker there were countless red flags indicating the house is unsafe. The children probably feared of what the guardian would do if they spoke up. I feel all three of the children were too young and traumatized to even know what was going on. CPS should have taken these children into custody immediately, two lives could have been saved. Or at least do a random check up frequently to get a better outlook on the situation.

    This article is so heartbreaking. CPS should have done something from the beginning when they first started noticing abuse. I have experience with a bad social worker before when I was fostering a child. She was suppose to come every month to check on him but wouldn't show up for months. CPS needs to find a solution to get these social workers to do there jobs to protect these children.

    is heartbreaking how a little mistake can change a lot of people's life. In this case 2 children are death. CPS need to have professional workers that know how to identify the emotions of the kids. This case show us how life is unfair with some people and how sad it can be when some people don't do their job right.
