Take animal abuse seriously. It is not only a crime in itself but an indication of other violence past, present and future. Report cruelty to your local Humane Society or Police. Teach, show and encourage kindness to animals. Children often feel more comfortable talking about people committing cruelty to pets and animals than talking about adults abusing children.
Experts agree that violence can be prevented through education and increased awareness.
