Physical and Emotional Abuse Hurts the World as Well as the Child
()
About this ebook
Child abuse,physical or emotional, creates long term negative effects. It is not just about the hit or the unkind words at the time - underneath there is damage to a child's self esteem. It is easy to bully a child. It is even easier to hit them with hands, sticks, canes, pokers, hairbrushes, and other weapons.
If you pull down a child's clothes to expose a bare bottom you add humiliation into the emotional damage you do. Please think about counting to ten before you lash out?
What happens when an abused child grows up is that they are not able to fulfil their potential without counselling or other support. The world loses out because of this. Child abuse can also increase the medical costs to the world because of the need for anti-depressants as one of the consequences of abuse is depression all too often.

I became an author without ever having had any desire to write! Let me explain: I was a Psychotherapist in private practice and busy, but always short on time or money due to the labour intensive nature of the work. I meditated about how to get more money and the "answer" came back "write the book". Well, what to write? I had read you should write about what you know so I started to try to convey all that I had learnt in 20 years of my professional life! It took me six yeaers! It was a long time before I found "my voice" - my style. Chatty rather than clinical as I believe in trying to connect with people. I literally had to screw up all my courage to start writing as it was a new world to share my thoughts with people I did not know. My most important book "Emotional Health for Emotional Wealth" was started on a bit of chip paper in a car park! I made lots of notes on scraps of paper and eventually orgainised them and pulled it all together and that was how this particular book was born! I was asked to write "Pre-Marital MOT: A Relationship Inspection" and that too is based on working with hundreds of individuals and couples. "Sexual Abuse & Incest" and "Physical and Emotional Abuse Hurt the World as Well as The Child" are two of the twenty self-help e-books now available in my Little Book Series of Emotional Health for Emotional Wealth. I have 7 rescue cats and adore all cats so when I was wanting an idea to help fund raise for cat rescue groups I wrote "Harry's Home! A Cat Compendium". If you love cats too this is the book for you! Watch my website for updates and do tell all your friends about me!
