Cruelty In America
What would happen to America if it wasn’t so spoiled? Would it change the government or the people and their lives? Our society had changed over the years and America have been spoiled like never before. We as Americans, take everything for granted and we don’t really realized that until something bad actually happens. To be clear, the definition for spoil is “to impair, damage, or harm the character or nature of (someone) by unwise treatment, excessive indulgence, etc.” I believe that the U.S.A is spoiled for many

    Child Abuse in the 1950

    When you read articles over child abuse and see the damage that has been caused and what has become of child abuse in today’s society the result is sickening. Child abuse has become a more common thing in today’s society. The fact that there are people in this world, who not only abuse but also neglect their children without consequence, because they are not caught, is even worse. Thankfully, there are many ways today to help save a child who suffers from child abuse. Child protection in America has been in action since the colonial period; “The history of child protection in America is divisible into three eras. The first era extends from colonial times to 1875 and may be referred to as the era before organized child protection. The second era spans 1875 to 1962 and witnessed the creating and growth of organized child protection through nongovernmental child protection societies. The year 1962 marks the beginning of the third or modern era: the era of government-sponsored child protective services.”(Myers, 1). Since the 1950s many laws have been implemented in order to protect children and keep them safe in our country. Children have become increasingly safer over the past fifty years, largely because of the effect of Henry Kempe’s article, “The Battered Child Syndrome” which lead to more informed doctors, better media coverage, and more effective protection and reporting laws. John Caffey was a pediatric radiologist born in 1895. He later became known as the “father of pediatric radiology” (Girdany, 1978). In 1946, Caffey released an article called “Multiple Fractures in the Long Bones of Infants Suffering from Chronic Subdural Hematoma” based on long bone fractures in infants. In his study he examined “6 patients who exhibited 23 fractures and 4 contusions of long bones.”(Caffey) in which he concluded suffered from chronic subdural hematoma. Although he could not prove anything, his observations seemed to be unexplained to say the least, “There was…

    The Lowest Animal: The Abuse Of The Elderly

    Miserly, vengeful, and foolish are just a few ways in which Mark Twain describes why humans are the lowest animal. There are many reasons to agree with him such as violence towards children, abuse of animals, insults of a racial, sexist, or religious nature, and indifference to the unfortunate. Although all of those topics are worthy to be discussed, this essay will focus on the abuse of the elderly. The capacity to abuse and take advantage of the elderly demonstrates that we as humans truly are the lowest animal.…

    The Effects Of Cruelty On Young Children

    During the late 19th century, cruelty remained the criterion. In the past there were no laws to protect and children were perceived as property of their family (Hendrick, 2003). Cruelty was found to mostly take place within families and school, and was justified as “discipline” (Bilston, 2006). Throughout this time, parental rights were seen as paramount and it was them who understood what was best for their children. Although within a child’s early years this is a time for developing their own thoughts and opinions; these were not valid as the parent’s choice would override their child’s decisions. Young children need to feel a sense of security and belonging, and rely on adults to meet their needs and care for…

    Hate Crimes In America

    For many years America has encountered different hate crimes. During the twentieth-century the law changed and evolved into a mechanism to protect civil rights. When race protection became the primary focus, the direction of the law changed to protect all races from discrimination. African-Americans were the primary race that was affected by racial violence from the Ku Klux Klan (Perry, 2009). This issue was very devastating and this drew a lot of attention to the Supreme Court. The changes that were made were based off the hate crimes that were present at the moment, so the Supreme Court enhanced the punishments involving hate crimes. This protected many people from being discriminated against and from any acts of racial violence. Restrictions…

    Hate Crimes in America

    How serious should the threat of a hate crime be taken? According to Ellis Cose, the African American author of Ignore the Noose Makers, to pay too much attention to the idiocy of those who hang nooses simply to intimidate their black target, “is to grant them an importance they do not deserve.” Nooses have a horrific history associated with them. They are known to be used in lynching (punishing people for crimes by private citizens without trial, whether they are guilty or not), of which three quarters of the cases in American history were against blacks. George Curry, another African American author of Calling Nooses What They Are – Terrorism, feels strongly that these threats are not to be taken lightly, and with that attitude people will not be able to “bridge the racial divide.” The American people are protected from hate crimes and verbal threats, and the hanging of a noose is a threat in itself of which their victims deserve protection from.…
