The previous research found that, the child abuse can strongly affect the individual’s adulthood by physical and mental health issues which can last a long period of time (LaBier, 2013). So, here’s a question: How to avoid the child abuse happen to the children? This article will base on LaBier’s(2014) blog article in the website Psychology Today to discuss the explanation and avoidance of the adversity of childhood experiences. Nowadays, the adversity of childhood experiences is a main problem for children development, it also can affect their behaviours in adulthood. According to the result of Rosenman and Rodgers’ report (2004), there are 59.5%of Australian population had experienced some form of adversity of childhood, and there are 37% had experienced more than one adversity during their childhood.

Carroll’s finding of the children who reported higher measures of parental warmth and feeling of love in their childhood had a lower possibility of multisystem health risks. (Judith E. Carroll cited by LaBier, 2014). LaBier has gathered many other researchers’ finding of the adversity of childhood experiences to show the significant impact and provided the way to avoid the children experiencing adversity of childhood. It is important for the parents and psychologists to know the childhood development during these days. LaBier concluded that “I think the upshot of this and other findings is that they provide more empirical confirmation that everything is connected in our lives (2014)”. However, the children can release the pain by the period of times and different environment while growing up, I do believe that there will be some ways to help the children who had experienced the adversity in their childhood by future

Research has consistently found that child abuse and neglect (maltreatment) increases the risk of lower academic achievement and problematic school performance. These children have suffered significant emotional stress during critical periods of early brain development and personality formation, the support they require is reparative as well as
Some people might argue that a child’s upbringing forms the child’s foundation of life. It forms the child’s identity and its view of life. The upbringing of children is a wide concept because it is never the same. The question is if there is an edge between upbringing and torture. The intention of upbringing is indisputable – you want your children to have a great life and a great future, but perchance certain ways of educating children can cause more damage than good.
As children at young age are very impressionable, an early childhood experiences can influence a child that can affect them ass an adult. During Nilsen’s childhood, his parent’s divorced when he was at a young age where he went to live with his mother and siblings at his maternal grandfather’s home (Crime Investigation, 2014). As they lived the home, Nilsen became very attached to his grandfather; however, Nilsen’s grandfather had passed away when he was 6 years old which impacted Nilsen when viewing his corpse at the funeral (Crime Investigation, 2014). Along with losing his grandfather, Nilsen became isolated when his mother remarried and had four more children from that marriage (Crime Investigation, 2014).
The annotated bibliography is an important part of the research process. The annotated bibliography helps students identify credible sources and summarize the valuable information they can pull and incorporate into their writing. This type of assignment “also provides insight into the research process undertaken by students due to its reflective nature… students used the annotated bibliography assignment to reflect upon their searches, and demonstrate evidence of research strategy revision, which was not as easily ascertained from final written papers” (Carbery and Leahy). By assigning an annotated bibliography, I can make sure students are taking their research seriously and I can monitor their progress on the final writing assignment.
“Education, Literacy, and Publishing in Victorian England.” British Literature Wiki, University of Delaware, https://britlitwiki.wikispaces.com/Education,+Literacy+and+Publishing+in +Victoian+England. Accessed on 12 Jan. 2017. This web page is intended to show the education and literacy in the Victorian Era to anyone reading the webpage.

The results they found concluded that there was a strong correlation between increased childhood stress and multisystem health risks in adulthood; in addition, having a loving and warm parental influence decreased the risk of multisystem health risks later in life (Carroll et al., 2013). All in all, participants who were abused as children and had no loving or warm parental influence were most at risk for disease and death in adulthood (Carroll et al., 2013). A limitation in this study was that it didn’t look at other psychosocial environment factors relating to the sources of abuse and warmth in childhood, so future studies done should look at factors within the psychosocial environment and see if they act as buffers for poor health in adults (Danese et al.,
The interaction between Bronfenbrenner, Piaget and Kohlberg theories on Dave’s abuse experience support the fact that middle childhood experiences affect one’s long-term
The short documentary “Child of Rage” presents an example of how experiencing abuse as a child can shape the child later in life and how some children can recover. The intrafamilial abuse that Beth experienced as a one year old affected her behavior later in her childhood when she was adopted. Beth was also able to recover from some of the effects of the child abuse she experienced once she was separated from her adoptive family and taken to a special home. Beth experienced intrafamilial abuse at the hands of her biological father after her mother passed away when she was one.
A child’s family environment, background and health can all have an impact on a child’s development because if the child is uncomfortable or unhappy then they are not developing in a healthy way. A child needs to feel loved and be shown affection to help them feel safe and secure in their environment in order to develop in a positive way. Children and young people’s development will either be boosted or restricted by personal factors, as well as external ones. External factors have a marked effect on a child’s development from the very beginning but they can also affect how involved a child is with school and group activities.
Abuse is another thing that has been linked, to problems in a child 's development. The earlier abuse and neglect occur in a child 's life the more severe the impact. Furthermore, the stage of development, while the abuse occurs will influence the type and severity of the consequences. Additionally, the more chronic and long lasting the abuse and neglect, the more harmful it is. When the abuse and neglect are caused, by parents or another significant figure a child, becomes confused because their supposed source of safety is the source of their harm.(Frederico 343).
Child abuse remains a serious issue in the United States. There are several potential outcomes that stem from child abuse, the most tragic being death. Of the survivors, there are children that are able to overcome their abuse and transition into healthy adulthood. Then there are the children who survive but are unable to overcome their abuse. The purpose of this research paper is to create an awareness about the children who are unable to overcome their abuse, to understand what fosters resilience in the children who are able to overcome their abuse and confirm that resilience can be fostered through community engagement.
Adversity seems like a negative experience, but for me, it provided a great opportunity for maturation and learning. Growing up in Connecticut, I never understood what my parents had gone through immigrating to the United States from Argentina in 1983, knowing very little English. I lived in the same place my whole life and I was happy. Then one day, just weeks short of my tenth birthday, my dad came home with news that his company had offered him a position in Switzerland.
In the article “ The Developmental Impact of Child Abuse on Adulthood: Implications for Counselors,” Adultspan Journal explains the multiple effects of child abuse. The authors April Sikes and Dancia Hays explain how child abuse has an extremely negative effect on children as they transition into adulthood. These effects can be physical, social, and even mental. Being treated badly as a child increases the risks in social development. Some examples of this are substance abuse, criminal behavior, violence, and risky sexual behavior.
Nurses often work with seriously ill patients with a variety of physical, emotional and psychosocial problems. Two patients’ outcomes can be vastly different due to resilience even though they have the same disease process occurring. This paper is a concept analysis of the concept of resilience. Resiliency is often used interchangeably with adaptability, overcoming, survival or resourcefulness. Merriam-Webster (2016) defines resilience as "an ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change.
