For past several years, with the incident in Iowa and in some other states, newborn infants have being abandoned and killed by their own mother. Like in the cased of Nicole Plum, who is 17, lived in Tama County, on February 16, was charged with the first-degree murder in the death of her newborn daughter, Chelsea. Baby Chelsea is a Reminder of Iowa s Discarded Newborns. Des Moines, Iowa. Domestic violence was the most common issue in our society today.
Domestic abuse is child abuse.
Domestic violence often led to child abuse because if the husband beat the wife with physical abuse, the child gets caught between the victim and abuser. The abuse is psychological, sometime children are found huddling in a closet. Like a incident occurred in Santa Ana, Laura was beaten by her former husband and also caused trouble to her children. Therefore, her children now become the victims of child abuse. Bibliography Weston, Bonnie.
