Every five hours a child dies from abuse or neglect in the US.
The latest governments figures show an estimated 1,770 children were killed as a result of maltreatment in 2009.
A recent congressional report concludes the real number could be nearer 2,500.
In fact, America has the worst child abuse record in the industrialized world. Why?
Over the past 10 years, more than 20,000 American children are believed to have been killed in their own homes by family members. That is nearly four
times the number of US soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. The child death rate in the US is triple Canada's and 11 times that of Italy.
Millions of children are reported as abused and neglected every year. Why is that? Sixty-six children under the age of 15 die from physical abuse or
neglect every week in the industrialised world. Twenty-seven of those die in the US - the highest number of any other country.
Even when populations are taken into account, Unicef research from 2001 places the US equal bottom with Mexico on child deaths from maltreatment.
In Texas, one of the states with the worst child abuse records, the Dallas Children's Medical Center is dealing with a rising number of abused
children and increasing levels of violence. Meanwhile, the Houston Center is expanding its services to deal with the rising problem of child sex
abuse.
The United States government is AGAINST THE AMERICAN FAMILY.
there is also a hidden law under obamacare for married couples and health care insurance. which is to be mandantory..
