Family Instability and Juvenile Delinquency in Nigeria: A Study of Owerri Mun...iosrjce
The increasing rate of juvenile delinquency has become a major social problem globally and locally.
Researchers and concerned individuals have traced the preponderance of juvenile delinquency to the increasing
rate of family instability among other factors. However, concerted inquiries into the influence of family
instability on juvenile delinquency have resulted in a raging controversy. While some researchers have found a
significant relationship between family instability and juvenile delinquency, others have suggested otherwise.
Against this backdrop, this study set out to fill this yawning gap in literature and also to examine the
relationship between family instability and juvenile delinquency in Owerri Municipality. Using the multi-stage
sampling method, 510 senior secondary school students were selected for this study from 10 comprehensive
secondary schools in Owerri Municipality. The questionnaire and the interview guide were used for data
collection. 2 hypotheses were formulated to guide this study. The hypotheses were tested with the chi-square (x2
)
statistic. The results of the analyses have shown that children from unstable homes engage more in juvenile
delinquency than their counterparts from more stable homes. As expected, inadequate parental supervision
predicted delinquency. This study recommended among other things that Governments, counselors and
concerned agencies should routinely develop programmes aimed at sensitizing parents and care-givers on
parent roles and obligations

Causes of Teenage Abortion in United States
Introduction
The rate of abortion among teenagers of between 15 years old and 19 years old has been declined. The decline of teenage abortion between 1990 and 2008 has been statistically shown to be about 56 percent. According to a study carried out by Child Trends Data Bank, the decline in the rates of abortion has been common for both younger and older teens (Child Trends DATA BANK, 1). In the American society, about one quarter of all teen pregnancies are ended through abortion. The research carried out by Child Trends Data Bank thus found out that teens resort to abortion because of several reasons which include peer influence, intentions to further education, issues of self-esteem, and pressure from societal factors. This paper is going to focus on the causes that are rooted in the teen abortion in the American society.Background Information
Abortion refers a deliberate act of terminating of a human pregnancy, which is normally undertaken within the initial 28 weeks of a pregnancy. According to a research carried out by Gutmacher Institute, 18 % of the women that obtain abortions in the U.S. are teenagers. The research further indicated that more than half of all abortions in United States are done by young women of around 20 years of age (Guttmacher Institute, 1).
According to American government records, an increase of teenage abortion was experienced during the 1970s (Luscombe, 1). It however stabilized in the years of 1980s at around the rate of 43 females per 1,000 females between the ages of 15 years old and 19 years old. A decline was then experienced to a rate of about 18 females per every 1,000 females by the year 2008. Though great declines have been experienced in the case of older teenagers, there has been a general decline even for the younger teens.
In the case of the different ethical\ETHNIC communities in the U.S population, rates for black, white, and Hispanic women have shown a substantial fall since the 1990s. However, for the case of Hispanic women, the decline started at a later time which was round 1993. In the case of white teens, the rates of abortion have decreased by about 68 percent. The second highest decrease in abortion rates is the case of the Hispanic teens, which is about 52 percent. In the case of black teens, the abortion rate has fallen by about 49 percent. The above decreases in rates are relative to the times when abortion rates were at their peaks (Kelleher, 1).
The decrease in the rates of teenage abortion has been attributed by the decline in the teenage pregnancy, with around 1985 being the year when teenage pregnancies were at its peak in the Ameri ...
This social policy research paper focuses on Child Welfare In the United States. The in the paper, the author gives a thorough history of the Child Welfare System as we know it. Trends and impacts on vulnerable populations within our society is also discussed.

The Benefits of Infant Massage for Parents Who Have Experienced Miscarriage o...Mary Kay Keller, MPA, PhD
2024 Infant Massage US Chapter Conference
Miscarriage and perinatal death are devastating events that affect a significant number of prospective parents worldwide. These experiences can result in profound grief and emotional distress, often accompanied by feelings of guilt, blame, and anxiety (Brier, 2008; Lok, 2014). While numerous support systems and therapies exist to help individuals cope with pregnancy loss, this presentation explores the potential therapeutic benefits of infant massage, a practice primarily aimed at enhancing the parent-infant bond, in the context of healing after miscarriage or prenatal death.
Infant massage is a tactile therapy involving the gentle manipulation of a baby's body, often using various oils or lotions. It has been utilized for centuries across different cultures as a means of promoting relaxation, enhancing infant development, and fostering attachment between caregivers and infants (Ferber, 2016). Infant massage may have specific applications in aiding the emotional recovery of parents who have experienced pregnancy loss.
This presentation presents live podcasts on grief and loss by Anderson Cooper and Stephen Colbert.
The presentation include recent science that updated grief and loss and how the brain works through grief.
Often siblings were and are not included in their parents grief or acknowledged to be grieving.
The benefits of introducing infant massage as a therapeutic support for grieving parents and how to do so are presented.
Techniques in communication i.e. Attunement, Connection and Engagement are presented.
Recommendations for those who are teaching infant massage, Resources and Supplemental Readings on the latest science based updates are included.

poverty.
20. Deprivation of human sexuality education and social relationship skills

22. Expectations of children becoming adults at 18 when clearly their brains have
not finished developing until age 25. (Not that we need to change the legal age,
we need to support them systemically in becoming independent.)
8. How has the United States Failed its Children?
2018 Delaware was the 1st state to outlaw marrying a child.
2018 New Jersey became the 2nd State to outlaw marrying a child.
2020 Minnesota became the 3rd State to outlaw marrying a child.
2020 Pennsylvania became the 4th State to outlaw marrying a child.
2020 American Samoa, U.S. Virgin Islands, and the remaining US Territories also
outlawed marrying a child.
2000 - 2015 200,000 minors were legally married in the United States, the majority of
children marriages were between minor females and adult males. Most minors married
were girls. The majority are children of color.
9. How has the United States Failed its Children?
Every state except Delaware, New Jersey, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania allows
underage marriage in exceptional circumstances if one or more of the following
circumstances apply:
● consent of a court clerk or judge (sometimes the consent of a superior court
judge, rather than a local judge, is required)
● consent of the parents or legal guardians of the minor
● if one of the parties is pregnant
● if the minor has given birth to a child
● if the minor is emancipated.
Where is the CONSENT of the minor?
10. How has the United States Failed its Children?
How great is the US?
Critics have pointed out that laws regarding child marriage in the United States
compare unfavorably to laws regarding child marriage in other countries. For
instance, in 2017, Human Rights Watch pointed out that Afghanistan has a
tougher law on child marriage than parts of the United States: in Afghanistan, the
minimum age of marriage is 15, and that only with permission from their father
or a judge; otherwise, it is 16.
As of that date, 25 U.S. states had no minimum marriage age at all if one or more
of the grounds for exception existed; this number has continually decreased since
then.
11. How has the United States Failed its Children?
Federal law
There is not much federal legislation concerning child marriages. In
2013, the Volence Against Women Reauthorization Act mandated
that the U.S. Secretary of State must "establish and implement a
multi-year, multi-sectoral strategy to end child marriage."
How is that moving forward?
12. How has the United States Failed its Children?
The most obvious arena in which the United States denies children their
human rights —and their childhood — is the criminal justice system, which
American children encounter far too early and with devastating
consequences. From a young age, many children — particularly students of
color and those with disabilities — are funneled out of the schoolroom and
into prison for childhood behavior. Children as young as six years old have
been removed from the classroom in handcuffs for throwing temper tantrums.
Others have been arrested for engaging in a tug-of-war with a teacher or
doodling on a desk.
13. How has the United States Failed its Children?
The United States remains the only country in the world to sentence children to life in
prison without the possibility of parole, a severe punishment that is categorically
prohibited under the Convention on the Rights of the Child. While in recent years the U.S.
Supreme Court has limited the application of this life and death sentence to children,
around 2,500 people are currently serving this sentence for crimes they were involved in
years ago as children.
Fourteen states have no minimum age for when a child can be prosecuted and punished as
an adult. In some cases, children as young as eight years old have been tried as adults for
committing a crime. Children confined in adult prisons are in an even more vulnerable
situation, forced to grow up too fast in a dangerous environment where they are
significantly more at risk for sexual assault and suicide.

19. Intergenerational Transmission
Impact on Children - ACEs can have lasting, negative effects on health, well-being, and opportunity. These
experiences can increase the risks of injury, sexually transmitted infections, maternal and child health problems,
teen pregnancy, involvement in sex trafficking, and a wide range of chronic diseases and leading causes of death
such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and suicide.
ACEs and associated conditions, such as living in under-resourced or racially segregated neighborhoods,
frequently moving, and experiencing food insecurity, can cause toxic stress (extended or prolonged stress). Toxic
stress from ACEs can change brain development and affect such things as attention, decision-making, learning,
and response to stress.
Children growing up with toxic stress may have difficulty forming healthy and stable relationships. They may
also have unstable work histories as adults and struggle with finances, jobs, and depression throughout life.
These effects can also be passed on to their children. Some children may face further exposure to toxic stress
from historical and ongoing traumas due to systemic racism or the impacts of poverty resulting from limited
educational and economic opportunities.

20. Intergenerational Transmission
Trauma - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in Children Examples of PTSD symptoms include:
● Reliving the event over and over in thought or play
● Nightmares and sleep problems
● Becoming very upset when something causes memories of the event
● Lack of positive emotions
● Intense ongoing fear or sadness
● Irritability and angry outbursts
● Constantly looking for possible threats, being easily startled
● Acting helpless, hopeless, or withdrawn
● Denying that the event happened or feeling numb
● Avoiding places or people associated with the event
Because children who have experienced traumatic stress may seem restless, fidgety, or have trouble paying attention and
staying organized, the symptoms of traumatic stress can be confused with symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD). Read: A guide for clinicians on deciding if it is ADHD or child traumatic stress.

11 Reasons Why Childhood Abuse Survivors Are Targets For
Toxic People In Adulthood ~ Lilly Hope Lucario
“The devil doesn’t come to you dressed
in a cape and pointy horns,
he comes as everything you ever wanted”
~ unknown
23. Intergenerational Transmission
1. Abuse and neglect are the childhood abuse survivors ‘normal.’
2. When children are not taught to respect themselves and do not learn how they should be treated –
with care, love, safety – they don’t realize this is what they need and deserve as adults.
3. Toxic people literally ‘hone in’ on adults with no awareness of how to be treated well.
4. Childhood abuse survivors are often groomed by parents to be ‘people pleasers’ and often this a
survival mode that is adaptive in childhood.
5. Childhood abuse survivors, have unmet emotional childhood needs.
6. Childhood abuse and neglect survivors often don’t learn healthy boundaries in childhood.
From 11 Reasons why.
24. Intergenerational Transmission
7. Childhood abuse and neglect survivors don’t learn healthy self-esteem and healthy self-worth.
8. Childhood abuse survivors often are unable to stand up for themselves, as they were not allowed to
do this and it wasn’t safe to do this, in childhood.
9. Children want to believe their parents and family love them. No matter what abuse they are
enduring. They grow to wrongly believe love and abuse can coexist.
10. Childhood abuse survivors are less likely to leave an abusive relationship with a toxic person in
adulthood.
11. Some childhood abuse survivors are empathic and can wrongly believe if they just love the toxic
person enough, the toxic person will change.
From 11 Reasons why.
25. How do current efforts contribute to intergenerational
transmission?
Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention
Children under the age of 18 may be exposed to abuse and neglect by a parent, caregiver, or another person in a
custodial role (e.g., clergy, coach, teacher). There are four common types of child abuse and neglect.
● Physical Abuse & Neglect
● Sexual Abuse & Neglect
● Emotional Abuse & Neglect
● Neglect (passive abuse)
● Financial abuse and Neglect
● Spiritual abuse and Neglect
Video also available in Spanish
CDC’s research and programs work to understand the problem of child abuse and neglect and prevent them before
they begin.
26. Connection over Compliance
Learning
The three most important aspects of learning ~ attention, ~ focus, and ~memory -- are
controlled by our emotions, not by cognition. The goal isn’t to tell children what to feel ~
it’s to turn them into caring citizens who are emotional scientists, with tools for
gathering important information and putting what they discover to good use. Marc
Brackett, Ph.D., Center Director of the Yale Center of Emotional Intelligence and
Author of Permission to Feel.
Humans learn and maintain positive behaviors through observing and modeling
connections. Lori Desautels, Ph.D. Author of Connection over Compliance.
27. Where do we get started?
By far, the most common ACEs in all 50 states are economic hardship, and parental divorce or
separation Nationally, just over one in four children ages birth through 17 has experienced economic
hardship somewhat or very often.
Experiencing 4 or more ACEs is associated with significantly increased risk for 7 out of 10 leading
adult causes of death, including heart disease, stroke, cancer, COPD, diabetes, Alzheimers, and
suicide.

Are our prisons full of people with High ACEs scores?
How effective is the current prison system in the US at rehabilitating violent offenders?
What are our options for interrupting the intergenerational transmission of Adverse Childhood

Editor's Notes
*Americans make up 4% of the world’s population. Each year, roughly 91% of children killed by guns around the world are American. 53% of these deaths are homicides, 38% are suicides, 6% are accidents, 3% are related to law enforcement or undetermined causes. There is no evidence that American children are more affected by mental illness or play more violent video games than children in the next 20 largest countries.
Idaho, Montana, and Alaska lead the way in youth suicides with guns (age 17 & under). The states with the highest total gun deaths among children each year are Louisiana, Wyoming, Alaska, and the District of Columbia (age 17 & under). 19 American kids die or are treated for gunshot wounds every day.

The DOJ declared
Let’s talk about Christmas, Birthdays, and other Holidays where children are coerced to compliance by threats of loss and or gaslighting.
Suicides among young people continue to be a serious problem. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for children, adolescents, and young adults age 15-to-24-year-olds. Suicide rates maybe higher than indicated due to classifying reporting data and under reporting by medical and educational staff. Death by “Accidents” is the highest category for children 18 and under.
Children, Teens and Emerging Adults should not be left on their own to figure out how to live life and their lives. That’s ABANDONMENT!
