Private Family Matter redefines specific acts of violence against children, between birth and 13 years of age, into six categories.

 

Child Abuse; Child Brutality; Child Torture; Child Sexual Abuse; Child Sexual Brutality; Child Sexual Torture

 

Acts of child violence have been reassigned to different categories by the website author to stop the practice of lumping all child violence into a single category called "child abuse." Violent acts against children, which result in loss of consciousness, permanent physical damage, require surgery to repair, destroy or alter their mental health, must be referred to as "torture" not the overused term abuse. Beating a child to unconsciousness is brutality, not abuse.  Beating them during unconsciousness is torture. 

Incest, for a child held in captivity though dependency, is torture.  There is no where for a child to run or hide, living with incestuous pedophiles.   Therefore, incest is torture.

Based on the age of the child, their fragile, undeveloped mind and body, most acts of child violence should be classified as "torture".  The use of psychological manipulation to bend and twist an undeveloped mind is torture, when permanently altering a child's core Being. 

Further, how the child eventually reacts to such torture is most important. A child will either react by turning rage inward in self destruction (drug use, addiction, suicide), or turn their rage outward to destroy people or property (arson, drug dealer, murder, rape, death, extreme violence against others).

Use only as a guide to break the habit of referring to severe child trauma as "abuse".  Most acts of "abuse" as redefined here, could be prevented if the parent takes responsibility to learn proper parenting skills. participate in child development education or refuses pass on a history of family violence. Through self-education the parent can change the life of their child without interference from the state.

Each category includes specific acts of emotional (hurt feelings), psychological (instill fear and/or terror and mental health) and physical trauma (temporary or permanent damage). Acts of sexual violence includes rape, incest, pedophilia, exploitation, among others.  The author believes that ALL sexual contact with a minor child under the age of 13 is torture, because it causes the most damage.

Key Elements in all Child Violence
WHO:     Relationship child has to abuser
WHO:     Number of abusers
WHAT:   Name a specific traumatic event or multiple acts  of trauma
WHEN:   Time of Year
WHERE:  Location where abuse took place
HOW:     Age of child

WHY:     This question may never be answered.
 

NOTE:  Parent and siblings are often the culprits in child violence but don't forget extended family members, neighborhood bullies, acquaintances, babysitters and their relatives. 

Child injuries which cause permanent damage, i.e. a broken leg left unset that heals crooked, or untreated STD's (sexually transmitted disease) that render a child permanently sterile, are acts of torture, no matter how the leg was broken or the child obtained the infection. Withholding prescription medication to control or punish a child, or withholding medical care for an injured child, is torture. 

 Child Abuse; Child Brutality; Child Torture; Child Sexual Abuse; Child Sexual Brutality; Child Sexual Torture

ALL are preventable crimes against our most innocent, helpless, dependent citizens.  It must STOP!
