Assignment#9 Child Abuse

   
Have you ever seen a kid look depressed or sad? Why do people like to hurt kids they are defenseless. When kids are abused they get hurt pretty bad. No kid wants to grow up with an abusive parent. Why would anyone think about hurting a child or there child. Poor kids don’t know why they are getting abused. They probably think that it is there fault when it really isn’t. Try to put yourself in their position so you could think about how they feel.

Have you seen a sad kid? Kids deserve to be happy. Kids are only kids for a certain amount of time and I would not want to grow up being abused by someone. Kids need to be kids and have fun at a young age. The types of abuse there is are physical, emotional, sexual, and neglect. All of these things hurt children in a certain way. Physical is like when you are hitting a child. I feel bad for the children that get hit because they are little and sensitive. Emotional abuse is when you hurt them emotionally. If that kid is emotional he is going to get hurt more easily. Sexual abuse is when someone is touching a child or having intercourse with the child. Imagine how a child feel when they are getting sexual abused they don’t know whats going on or if it’s good or bad. Then there is neglect. Neglect is like when no one pays attention to a child.

Why do you think people hurt children? Children are defenseless they don’t know what to do when these things happen to them. They also might be afraid to tell anyone. I think that people abuse children because they have a bad life so they take out there anger on the child. Maybe the parent doesn’t like the child for some reason. But that does not mean that they should abuse them just because they are different. A child needs to be accepted for who they are. People might just abuse children because they are really crazy.

When kids are abused they get hurt in a lot of ways. Some kids get traumatized because they are abused. Kids grow up with problems and they don’t need to grow up with these problems. When a child is abused you can tell that they are different from other children because of the way they react to things or do things. Some children might not have any friends because they are abused. When children are abused they live a life that no one deserves to live.

No kid in the whole wide world wants to grow up being abused. They just want to have fun explore and do new things. Kids just want to be kids and do things that kids do like play with each other and act silly. But I guess that to some people it is wrong for a child to act like that. Kids don’t like being scarred, sad, or hurt. Things like that can put a child down. Do you like seeing children happy or sad? So why would you even think about hurting a child. You wouldn’t like to get hurt so why would a child want to get hurt.

Poor children don’t even know why they are getting abused. Whenever something bad happens and there parents blame the child the child is going to start thinking that whenever something bad happens it is going to be there fault. Children are going to grow up confused because they are not going to know whats right or wrong. Children should not grow up confused on whats right or wrong. They should not grow up thinking everything is there fault. They should not think that because a lot of things are not going to be there fault. I hate getting blamed for things that are not my fault. Children are going to hate it too but they take the blame because they are afraid of what will happen.

Children could commit suicide because they are getting abused. They are so young and don’t know how to get help. They probably think that there is not help or any way out of there misery. Because they can’t find help they commit suicide. They are too young to be thinking like that and should not die at such a young age. Put yourself in there position and think about how they feel. They feel really horrible and that’s why they think negative. All that negative thinking makes them think about committing suicide. Those kids that commit suicide only got to experience life in a bad way and live only for a little time. But they just can’t take it anymore so that’s why they commit suicide.

So what can we do to stop child abuse? I don’t really know but we can tell someone that someone is getting abuse if they have like burses a lot or look for other signs. Lets help these children live the life they deserve and not let them go in the wrong direction. Children are too little to know whats going on in there lives so help them. Everyone wants to have a good child hood because it’s a big part of your life and if you don’t have a good child hood you grow up traumatized.
        

Assignment #10 The Journey


When I woke up this morning in my cabin it was dark. It smelled like rain. When I got out of bed I was wondering why it is so dark. Then I walked into another room because I saw some light. After I went n that room I realized that all the curtains were closed. So I opened all the curtains then I turned and looked at the room I was in. it had some nice conferrable coaches. When I sat on them I sat on something hard when I checked it was the remote to a huge TV. I was so happy because the living room was nice but when I turned on the TV I couldn’t find something to watch. So I went back to the bed room and laid down for a second when I got up I looked at my self in the mirror and said to myself that I can’t just stay in here and do nothing. I got ready and walked outside.

When I walked outside I was on the porch and everything was wet. Then I figured that it rained last night. After that I felt hunger so I went into the kitchen right away. When I got there I was looking for something to eat. I don’t know how to cook food or bake anything so I had to find something simple and easy for me to eat. I made myself a sandwich. After that I went back out side.

When I walked out there it was beautiful and I like the way the rain smelt. There was a huge field and I wanted to go across it. I wanted to go on a little journey. The field was beautiful because all the grass was tall and green and the flowers made in seem so peaceful. There were yellow, purple, and red flowers everywhere. It was nice and quite the only thing you could hear was the sound of the breeze. There were only two animals that I saw on my way across the field and they were a rabbit and a snake. I was afraid of the snake because I didn’t know what kind of snake it was so I didn’t even try to mess it.

When I got to the end of the trail there was a big mountain. I had to decide if I wanted to climb it or turn around and go back to the cabin. I was a little excited and I felt very adventurous so I decide to climb the big mountain that I found at the end of the field. The mountain was very rocky and didn’t have a lot of trees at the bottom but at the top there were a lot of trees. The bottom had a lot of brown colors like the dirt the rocks but the top looked nice because of all the trees and plants that were up there I wanted to get up there as fast as I can. When I was at the bottom of the mountain I didn’t like the way it smelled down there I couldn’t really smell anything till I got to a spot where it smelled like a dead animal. I was looking around to see what it was but I could not find anything. So I just kept going up the mountain.

In the mountain I saw a little bit more animals then I saw in the field. I saw rabbits, snakes, squerls, bears, and mountain lion. Then when I was more than half way up the big mountain I heard something. It sounded like water. I followed the sound and every time I got closer I heard it getting louder. When I got there it was a stream of water goin down the mountain and I followed it up the mountain. When I got to the end where all the water came from it was like a whole and too small go in. the water smelled so good and looked so clean so I drank a little because I was exhausted from all that climbing that I just did. The water tasted so good I didn’t want to stop drinking it. It was the best water I have ever drunk in my whole entire life.

When I was almost to the top I saw a mountain lion and it was so close to me. It was on a big rock right above me. I was scared out of my mind. We looked into each other’s eyes and while we were looking at each other it felt like forever. I was too shocked to run or do anything. After a long scary two minutes or so the mountain lion just walked away. I couldn’t believe that I just walked away without doing anything. I thought that I was goin to die. It was a pretty good day to die because in that one day I have a lot of wonderful experiences. I could not think of how much more that day could of gotten better because of the mountain lion was a pretty cool experience.

So after the mountain lion thing I kept on going up the mountain to complete my journey. When I got to the top I was so happy. Then I saw a statue and I walk over to it. I was amazed because of the designs on it. It was a statue of a man praying. It was nice a when I was there I could feel like some sort of power and it was an amazing feeling. It was nice because it was surrounded by trees and there was a really peaceful mood there. I spent the night there because on top of that mountain it was amazing I didn’t leave until about noon so I can get back to the cabin on time.
