Juvenile violent crime rates increased 62 per cent from 1988 to 1993, and then declined by just 6 per cent from 1993 through 1997, according to the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). However, the rates for juvenile drug and curfew violations, sex offenses, and simple assaults have continued to increase. The greater the number of risk factors and the fewer the resiliency factors the greater the risk that a youth will commit a violent act. To prevent dangerousness in youth, we need to understand the sources of the problem and intervene appropriately. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary Jasmine Fiore probably did not see it coming until it was way too late. Like so many others before her when the former swimsuit model attempted to end the relationship she paid the ultimate price. According to statistics when a woman attempts to leave an abusive relationship the danger to her increases dramatically. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary You don't get the full gist of it in the beginning of the relationship. And as far as your significant other is concerned you are not supposed to. If you did than the chances of you still being in the relationship would drop considerably. So they went about sweeping you off of your feet and did their best to hide their true nature. It worked because you fell in love with them and decided to make a go of things. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary Lynne Gold-Bikin is the founder of Family Law's Commission on Domestic Violence. She tells the New York Daily News, "A victim is often alienated from friends and family by the abuser, and if someone says something to her about the abuse, she may not listen." It could be any number of reasons why they refuse to listen. It can be anything from love to just complete and effective manipulation by the abuser. If the abuse victim does finally realize what is going on trying can prove to be very dangerous. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary How do you end the cycle of domestic violence? For many of us the answer is simple. Just leave. However as Erika Tindill - Executive Director of CT Coalition Against Domestic Violence tells Fox News 61 it is not that easy. "The biggest misconception is that victims can just leave. Can simply extract themselves from the situation. Pack up and walk out the door. That is not the case." Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary The cycle of domestic violence can be very frustrating for those of us who are looking at it from the outside. Yes on many occasions we have been told to put ourselves in someone else's place or walk a mile in their shoes. But that is easier said than done. For many of us out point of view is the only thing we have to go on. It has served us well this far and that's good enough. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary Finally after much pleading and cajoling from people in her social circle she has left the relationship. It was not easy to get her to take this step. Quite often she was very adamant in telling people to leave her alone. She wasn't staying for the kids or out of fear. She loved him and that's all there was to it. Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary How destructive are the effects of domestic violence? An article from Psych Central gives us a perfect example: "one of the most tragic outcomes of domestic violence is that well more than half of the young men between the ages of 11 and 22 who are in jail for homicide have killed their mother's batterer." Expert Author: Daryl A Campbell | Summary It is almost hard to fully comprehend effects of domestic violence can have on anyone and anything that crosses its path. The destructive force as well as the corrosiveness can impact a family community or even entire counties. That last one is not an exaggeration. Any country that turns a blind eye to it or in essence hands the abuser the right to abuse is a prime example of that corrosiveness. Over the last few years many studies have been done concerning various forms of child and youth victimization. These studies have included; physical and sexual abuse, bullying, sexual harassment, exposure to community violence and the witnessing of domestic violence. What's scary about all these studies is the end result. Expert Author: Arthor Pens | Summary I remember one time, late at night, her begging my dad not to shoot her. I remember several times, as she was battered, I would sneak into the kitchen to grab an empty beer bottle to hit dad, but never got the courage. Those sirens. My God, those sirens just wouldn't stop. Sissy and I are crying. Where is everybody? Can't those sirens just stop. Red all over the outside of the house. What is it, and why won't those sirens stop. Expert Author: Jennie Gandhi | Summary Child Labor is a commonly heard term these days. Varying definitions of the term are made by international organizations, non-governmental organizations and trade unions. According to the international conventions anyone who is below the age of 18 is considered a child but the figure may vary from one country to another depending on government policies. Security cameras are a constant target for scrutiny by watchdog organizations. They fear that wireless surveillance cameras do nothing but waste resources and infringe upon their privacy. Perhaps police should stop carrying guns and no one will get shot anymore. Expert Author: Muna wa Wanjiru | Summary The current world we live in, especially the United States, suffers from an overwhelming number of criminal offenders. As time moves on, crime only seems to increase. Expert Author: Frank K. Githinji | Summary Hey there, do you know something? domestic violence in California is actually on the rise. It is a cause of concern for any peace loving and law abiding citizen. Posters, media coverage, fact sheets, brochures for victims, sample resolutions and other resources available should be used to call attention to this mind destroying and heart wrecking crime. Expert Author: Frank K. Githinji | Summary Physical women abuse is defined as having been hit, slapped, kicked, or otherwise physically hurt by a male partner or ex-partner. Women abuse is happening daily, without respect to the womans age, racial orientation, ethnic grouping, socio-economic status, marital status, religion, or sexuality. Expert Author: Angela Hebert | Summary Don't be confused with rape and having sex, they are not the same. Rape is a crime and something that you do not want to experience. Learn to prevent a rape by being aware of your surroundings and not putting yourself in harm's way. Expert Author: CD Mohatta | Summary A child has been compared to a flower. Look at a newborn child. The child knows nothing about the world. It is so innocent of the world and surprised that how it is in this place. All these months, it was so protected in the mother's womb and suddenly in the world of light yes, the child is surprised. But worse may be yet to come for the unfortunate children of the world. They may get abused. Many of us think that outsiders abuse children. Most of us think about sexual abuse when we come across the word child abuse. But that is not so. Let me tell you the hell the child may experience at home. Expert Author: Scott James | Summary Even though rape involves forced sex, rape is not about sex or passion. Rape Is Rape and sadly is an everyday occurrence. A single act of rape is barbaric but it would be naïve to assume that rape just involves squalid acts of sexual assault in dimly lit alleyways late at night. Expert Author: Bruce Seah | Summary Child prostitution is horrific, brutal and evil and what you can do to stop it! The first thing to do is to be aware that this dreadful disease of the mind is spreading worldwide and the only way to stop it is to gather all the good forces available from the world leaders, billionaires, and people who care enough to take action to stop the atrocities and senseless destruction of innocent children's lives!
