The Caring of Children

Do we care about children today? No, people today don’t really care about children because we get

pushed about by adults. Children are also getting abused by adults at

home.

We children go into shops on our own and we get thrown out, or

followed around the shop. The shop owners think that we are going to

steal there goods of the shelves without paying for them. The shop

owners are having to put up more security cameras and prices of there

stock because we are stealing from them. They are putting up the

security cameras to watch where and what we are doing in the shop,

they are even following us to see what we are doing if the cameras

can’t see us, and they act as they are putting up new stock on the

shelves. If we have bags on our back the shop owner will sometimes ask

you to open your bag, so they can see weather you have anything,

showing that they don’t trust us.

Surveys show that one in six children today are getting severely hurt

at home by there parents. Only some parents are admitting to hitting

there children, and who do get hurt by there parents are to afraid to

tell someone about it. Research shows that a few parents put their

children’s heads under water and held it there, others have poured hot

water over them. A few mothers admit to pinching, scratching and

biting there children. Some children’s parents make them wash there

mouths out with salt and/or soap, and if they refuse to eat there

supper they are made to eat mustard sandwiches. In recent surveys it

is showed that mothers are more likely to hit their children than

fathers are, even when the care of the child or children are shared

evenly. Half of children in a survey said it was right for there

parents to smack them and are going to hit there children when they

are adults.
