Signs of child abuse: What to Look out For
If you think that your child has been abused here are some things to look out for.: e.g.
1) Is your child wetting the bed?
2) Is your child having nightmares why?
3) Have your child's appetite any different from usual?
3) Has your child friendships changed or has he or she become different?
4) Is your child talking any differently from normal?
5) Has your child's school work changed for the worse?
6) Is your child very depressed If so why?
Signs of child abuse: My Mother Not Noticing
All of these happened to me and I was abused as a child and I wet the bed.
My mother never recognised any of these signs. I wish my mother was more awake or more interested in us as a family. My mother never wanted to listen to me or cared about me.
I was very depressed as a child and my mother did sot even notice how unhappy I was. My mother had no idea I was having nightmares or depressed as a child. She never asked me what was wrong.
I don't know if that has happened to you where none of your family speak to you or each other.
Signs of child abuse: Outside People Notice
Only when I was away at weekends did someone ask me why are you wetting the bed?Signs of child abuse: Parents and Children.How can any mother not be aware of what is going on right under their noses in their own house.
I know that it is hard for you as a parent to see that maybe your child is upset and maybe there is something bothering them. I am a parent and whatever is wrong with my children I take them to the doctors to find out what is wrong.
My daughter went to her first school which was supposed to be lovely but in the end we found out that the headmistress was a bully.
I did all that I could to get her out of the school and I check with my daughter that she was not disturbed. Why I am telling you this?
Because my mother never took control for us or help us in any way. I want to protect my children to the best of my abilities and I wanted to share this with you.
The Abuser.
Here is another symptom of abuse:e.g,
1) The abuser will have made your child promise never stop tell you that he or she has got hurt because something terrible would happen to you. There might be other rules that the abuser has set to keep your child from talking.
2) The abuser has taken away the trust of the child meaning he or she might not trust anyone including you.
If your child has been abused you should never feel that it is either your child's fault or your's that. Why do I say this? You can not be with them 24 hours a day.
My grandma made me think that because of the horrible experience with my own daughter. You can guide them advice and be there for them.
My mother also blamed me and so did her friend blaime me for letting myself get abused. You must never let any blaime you and I think that repeating that the abuse was never your fault is very important.
Signs of child abuse: Trust.
How you might be able to open up your child since the trust has disappeared?
I would suggest that you take one a step at a time and rebuild your trust with your boy or girl. They may need extra help and if so let them talk about the abuse in their own time.
Signs of child abuse: Patience and A Lot of Love.
You need a lot of patience and love and reassurance to both you and your child to know that one day you can both live with the abuse that has happened.
You will have up and down days and having God and Jesus in your lives will help a great deal. Get books from Joyce Meyer and Set Free because Joyce has been abused and the people in the book have also been abused, mentally, physical and sexually.
Signs of child abuse: Never Give Up.
Never give up that is the devil working. Keep smiling and keep the talking open between you and your child and have a lot of support.
My mother never really wanted to talk about the abuse. It is totally wrong, because both me and brother are still healing from the abuse today.
My brother and i talk about the abuse and we support each other. That is way I wanted to write this page to help you all.
You need to be able to talk to your child if they are troubled in any way and the same rules apply with your child who have been abused. Never shut the door to your child.
Signs of child abuse: Coming to Terms With the Hurt.
You need to accept that the abuse has happened, but you can learn to live with it and not let it haunt you for the rest of your life.
