      How can a child succeed in a school setting when they don't know how to ask for help when they really need it? Their trauma sets them up for failure because they have to be so self reliant at home
  • One of the challenges in giving that support is that when kids misbehave, our schools often use disciplinary systems that involve withdrawing attention and support, rather than addressing their problems

      this re-enforces their idea of being alone doesn't it?
  • They need coaching and practice at de-escalating when they feel overwhelmed
  • they develop the belief that they’re bad, and what’s happened to them is their fault
  • “hostile attribution bias” — the idea that everyone is out to get them
  • They see negative where we see neutral
  • One of the classic symptoms of trauma is hyper-vigilance
  • This can look like hyperactivity
  • hronic trauma affects children’s memory, their ability to pay attention, plan, think things through, and other executive functions. Kids who have ADHD as well as trauma may be especially impaired in these skills.

    Although I don't think it will be me who takes this subject on as my research project, I hope someone else does. I don't remember anyone bringing this topic up in our first discussion. This kind of stuff really bothers me while watching it in a movie or reading about it in a book. I don't have the stomach for it.
  •  
    Many people over look this topic. It is important to watch out for children and recognize child abuse.
  •  
    This is a major issue and would be a great subject for a research project. Our children are our future and need to be taken care of.

1 in 6 Nursing Home Residents Experience Neglect or Abuse * SJS - 0 views

  •  
    This is about the abuse that those residing in nursing homes experience. Nursing home workers severely abuse residents by neglecting them and physically abusing them which leads to mental health issues.
  •  
    I agree that there are bad nursing homes out there. However, there are also amazing nursing homes out there that have excellent staff and owners/operators that have years of experience.

CPS Failed - 3 views

  •  
    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.

America's 10 Worst Prisons: Tent City | Mother Jones - 0 views

  •  
    The jail conditions are really poor in Maricopa county. Some would argue that the conditions are unconstitutional. Rap by fellow prisoners or staff, beaten by guards, driven insane by long-term solitary confinement, or killed off by medical neglect. I understand that criminals shouldn't live in luxury but the conditions that Joe Arpio has the prisoners is not right.

    How could someone hurt an animal? I don't understand why people are so cruel. It's terrible that they are overlooked. Animals need to be taken care of just like humans.
  •  
    Reading articles about animal cruelty make me extremely sad. Things like this should not be a problem yet it happens all the time.
  •  
    Anything that brings up animal abuse it extremely upsetting to me. Things like this needs to be stopped it should not even be an issue.
  •  
    I do not agree with animal abuse.
  •  
    Animal cruelty needs to be stopped. It is so horrible to see what abuse animals go through.

Child Abuse: More Than Just a Scar | Human Rights - 1 views

  •  
    More programs need to be put in place to stop child abuse and neglect. Abused children have more physical and mental problems than their peers. They are likely to become abusers themselves. We need to find a way to help those who have been abused and prevent the cycle from being repeated.
  •  
    I do agree with your article that yes children are a product of their environment. If a child is being abused mentally and physically than they too end up growing up thinking that okay and normal and eventually abusing their own kids in the future. Children should be protected and loved and grow up in an environment where they feel that and know that, they shouldn't live in fear.

Raising Awareness about PTSD: A Resource Guide - 0 views

  •  
    Healthcare services for retired military are strained. State-level Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals are working to rebuild their reputation after the 2014 allegations of widespread patient neglect and long wait times. The responsibility private medical providers have toward veterans is clear - one-third of VA hospitals and clinics report inadequate mental health staff and patients wait an average of eight weeks to see a VA counselor for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Who should be held accountable for child abuse? - 1 views

  •  
    Who is responsible for being punished in extreme cases of child abuse? Are caseworkers at fault for allowing the children to be placed into such care? It is a question of whether those who are not paying enough attention to see the signs of neglect should be held to the same punishment as the abuser themselves.

Animal Rights - 2 views

    The article talks about a book on how animals should have rights as in equal consideration. Animals have the ability to suffer as well as a human being. Why should or should not animals have rights?

    Good points. Are you vegan or vegetarian? Most animals have the ability to feel pain. Adolf Hitler stated that prey species such as deer, elk, gazelle, antelopes, etc. are healthier and can run for longer periods of time and promoted healthy eating (though he was a hippocrate and ate meat himself). When people eat meat they get tired easier, need more water, and have less energy. Without a moral foundation one can justify almost anything. Do you think Christian doctrine is to blame? After all, God told Peter to eat meat. Maybe it was the best choice in order to make peace with the gentiles and not eating meet would have made Peter look aloof. Then again, in Genesis it states that God gave mankind plants to eat and not meat. From a convenient point of view is it practical to only buy products that are not made from animals? Even makeup has animal products in it. What about shoes, clothes, purses, etc? Also, if you have time, I would suggest researching Ralph Smart. Have a good day.
  •  
    I enjoyed reading this article as well. Animals have very similar traits as humans. They eat, feel, and suffer just as humans do. Why should we strict them of their rights? Just because they do not have a voice to defend themselves does not mean we should ignore the equality they deserve.
  •  
    I loved this! Animals have such a huge place in my heart and definitely deserve all the rights as us humans do. I hate hearing stories or seeing videos posted on Facebook of animals being neglected.. I don't understand how some people can do such a thing to an animal who cannot even defend themselves. They just want to be loved and nurtured.
  •  
    The article made some great points. Animals do suffer. They feel pain and fear. Because of this, they definitely should be given rights. Like the article stated, I grew up eating meat, but have made the transition into vegetarianism thanks to my wife who is a vegan. All it took was for me to be educated on where our meat is coming from and the conditions of the animals being slaughtered. If people could read these types of articles and watch documentaries like "Earthlings" and "Cowspiracy" I am sure they might also consider vegetarianism or veganism.

    As much as we are busy and neglect our environment, the earth's temperature is still increasing at a very high rate. Global warming is real. We read a lot of articles and hear a lot of scientist saying how terrible the earth's atmosphere is right now but there is one thing I think we could do is that stop using plastic bags.
