The document discusses several common myths about child abuse and shows they are false with evidence. It notes that children are often abused by people close to them, not strangers, and that children are unlikely to fabricate stories of abuse. The document also rejects claims that abuse only happens in certain incomes or areas, and notes both girls and boys can be victims and either men or women can be perpetrators. It emphasizes that children are never at fault for abuse.
Juvenile detention centers in the US are incarcerating children as young as 9 for minor offenses, where they face abuse, neglect, and torture from staff. Being incarcerated, even briefly, can have long-lasting harmful effects on children by negatively impacting their development and increasing the likelihood of future criminal behavior. Reform is needed to protect vulnerable youth and avoid inflicting further harm through the juvenile justice system.
Child abuse is any act that endangers or impairs a child's welfare and includes physical, sexual, emotional, and neglect. It has serious short and long term effects on children's physical and mental health. Approximately 5 children die from abuse daily in the US and over 3 million cases are reported each year. Abused children are more likely to experience mental health issues, engage in criminal behavior, and have relationship problems as adults. It is crucial to support victims and prevent further harm through education, intervention, and legal prosecution of abusers.
Sexism defines traditional gender roles that view women's work as domestic and of no economic value. This leads to women being paid less than men and lacking rights such as voting. Globally, women are often treated as property under male control. Feminism works to address issues of inequality, such as the wage gap, and increase women's rights and autonomy. While progress has been made, sexism continues to negatively impact women through issues like sexual harassment, violence, and lack of reproductive rights.
There are common myths about child maltreatment, including that the greatest risk is outside the home, that rates have reached epidemic levels, and that risk factors alone cause maltreatment. However, research shows that over 50% of child homicides under age 10 are by family members, rates have actually declined with increased reporting, and risk factors only increase probability not cause maltreatment. Definitions of maltreatment vary over time and place, and include physical abuse, neglect, sexual abuse, and emotional abuse as recognized by most states within minimum federal standards defined by acts resulting in harm.

This document discusses a case study about an 11-month-old girl named Najia who is exhibiting atypical development. Specifically, she is not babbling or pointing to objects, which are milestones she should have reached by her age.

Nafezia Mohamed reflects on what she has learned from her semester placement working with children. She learned that building trust with the children is important, and that trust helps her learn how to better guide and talk to the children. She also learned the importance of active listening, which requires patience to listen to a child's feelings and restate them. The children enjoyed sharing their feelings and talking about what was bothering them. Nafezia plans to apply the guidance skills and strategies she learned, such as active listening and helping children express themselves, in her next placement.
