A Blue Pinwheel: In Search of a Child's Happiness

About this ebook
April is National Child Abuse Prevention month. Did you plant your pinwheel? All over the country, people are planting blue pinwheels to promote child abuse awareness. A blue pinwheel symbolizes a child’s happiness. There are so many children suffering in silence. There are several types of abuse. I believe emotional abuse is the most untraceable abuse of all. With the naked eye, one cannot recognize the sign of a child’s emotional scarring. Silently; it is crushing their self-esteem and self-image. If left undetected, a child could suffer emotional damage that could lead to death. Let us take a stand on child abuse by promoting awareness and prevention throughout the world.
