How do you feel about parents who abuse their children?

Sexual abuse I think does harm in a way that goes beyond any other type of abuse. Purely a personal opinion. I think it destroys a child in so many different ways. It is also the only type of abuse that cannot be justified in any way. That type of abuse, I think the parents should be locked up. I dont think they should be shot. That would be way too kind. Tortured for the rest of their lives perhaps. As for understanding that they must be really sick and in all kinds of pain to do that to their kids, and that they were probably abused, well I really dont care. The minute you become a perpetrator, I no longer care whether or not you were a victim. And honestly, I prefer it that way. There are counselors and therapists that work with these people. I dont know whether I could or not. I know that I dont want to.

Now, when it comes to physical and emotional abuse. Sometimes I think it is parenting gone awry. Or a parent who is not handling things well. Of course it isnt an excuse, it isnt okay, but there are some situations where the parent is not out to destroy the child. Obviously in this case something needs to be done. But it’s a little different from when a parent finds pleasure in torturing their kid. Again, it’s like the sexual abuse. If the parent is trying to get something out of hurting their kid in some way, it puts them in a whole other light. And I think parents like those should have their kids taken away, they should be put in prison, and they should not be allowed to be near kids again. They do it to sex offenders. They should do it to parents who torture their kids.

I think with any type of abuse either child, domestic, animal, etc…that the person who is causing the abuse she be caught, and punished severely. not thrown in jail, well ya but that person should be treated as they treated their victim. for example if they shot someone well they should be shot and be left to be in pain for hrs on end. I think the person who causes the abuse should know what it feels like to be put thru it

Coming from a person who came from an abusive home, I think that parents that abuse their kids have no right to keep them. A parent is there to help the child grow to be the best they can be, not to hurt and mess up the kid so bad that they can barely function in the real world. I was subjected to emotional, verbal and sometimes physical abuse on a daily basis. I can truthfully tell you that it has messed me up. I have trouble with people skills, I’ve tried to commit suicide, I’ve cut… the list goes on and on. So my opinion is that people that torture kids dont deserve to have them at all.

parents who abuse there children should not have had children in the first place. Any kind of abuse to a child is sick and cruel.

I don’t like it. It sets up a pattern for the children to treat their children the same way. Eventually the child gets very hurt, or killed in that abuse.
