“I pity the father when he said “I send my child with high hopes, and every night I sleep missing my child” how distraught he must be to know that his child is treated as such.”
The abuse of children by adults who are supposed to be caring for them in the first place should stop!
As a community, we need to find a way to stop these horrendous acts from destroying the future of these innocent kids. Got ideas? Share with us what you think in the comments section!
