Focal Point: Child Abuse

Sub Point: How does child abuse affect a child’s education?

Child abuse has become a chronic and widespread problem all


around the world. According to sources in the United States,
approximately three million children are abuse victims annually.
The abuse can be sexual, physical, emotional, or through child
neglect, but abuse, which is sometimes primarily mental or physical,
leaves a deep scar and can have negative psychological and
educational implications for the vulnerable child. It was recognized
that children who are/were being abused have a more difficult time
maintaining good grades in school due to stress from their lives at
home. Abuse is severely hurting the education of various children
which is damaging their conscious development and preventing the
child from not engaging at the proficiency level within the
classroom.
Firstly. child abuse is a form of child maltreatment that
results in physical or emotional harm to the child. Child abuse can
be physical (such as beating), sexual (such as rape), or
emotional/psychological (such as abandonment). Child abuse also
includes neglecting a child’s basic needs such as food, shelter and
medical care. Child abuse may occur in any setting where children
are present including homes, schools, daycare centres and other
institutions for children. Physical abuse occurs when an adult
intentionally uses force against a child causing injury or pain.
Secondly, sexual
abuse occurs when an adult forces a child to engage in unwanted
sexual behaviour by threatening them with violence if they do not
comply; this may include forcing the victim into prostitution or
pornography; it also includes forcing the victim to touch their own
body sexually through masturbation or use of sexually objects.
Child abuse affects the education of children in a number of ways.
The most common is that it can lead to physical and emotional
problems, such as depression or anxiety. Other forms of child abuse
include neglect. This can be done by giving them too much time
away from home or even just being absent. The child may also have
difficulty with social skills, such as speaking or writing.
Lastly, child
abuse doesn’t necessarily only hurts a child’s education, but it
results in severe suicidal thoughts and unfortunate deaths. The older
children grow is the more they demand love, support, and
leadership. Furthermore, they’ll grow to be independent individuals
and positive role models. Failing to supply a child’s basic needs is
understood as neglecting the child. Neglect has also become the
foremost common type of maltreatment.
In
conclusion, school isn’t only simply a place where children go, it’s a
social environment that will further these students with a lifelong
vast of knowledge and education. Abuse is severely hurting the
education of various children which is damaging their conscious
development. The education of abused children isn't a wasted effort,
with proper treatment, help and guidance they're going to become
mature and be successful. Child abuse majorly affects the child’s
education and learning process as they may become depressed and
socially awkward or antisocial.
