Overall, I think that neglect trauma can be predictor in future juvenile delinquency, which has been proven to be a growing problem. There is a rising number of children in the criminal justice system with a trauma history, therefore the system needs to be more proactive about helping the children with trauma, specifically those with neglect trauma.

According to an article written by Paul Tough (2016), large amounts of stress experienced in childhood can alter a child’s brain development, resulting in the child having to endure an increase in blood pressure and levels of stress hormones throughout the course of their life. Such alterations in neurological and physiological development could ultimately lead to changes in a child’s behavior since excessive amounts of stress can negatively influence a person’s decision-making behavior (Hollon, Burgeno & Phillips, 2015). Hence, when placed under a great deal of stress, children experience negative changes mentally, physically, and
Children are young fragile beings brought into the world with hopes to change it. In order to flourish, a child requires the same basic needs that any adult would also require. That is, shelter, safety, security, love/belonging, and health. Unfortunately, due to the horrible incidents of maltreatment, abuse, and or neglect not all children have had access to these basic needs. In fact, a lot of these essential needs are actually taken away from them when children are abused and or neglected by their biological family members or any adult in charge.

Child abuse and child neglect are two different categories under maltreatment. Neglect is not doing your duty to provide a child’s physical and mental needs. An example of child neglect is if a parent is hooked on either alcohol or drugs and their judgment might be clouded, making the parent unstable to provide care to a child. On the other hand child abuse is when you’re purposely harming a child physically, mentally and or sexually. An example for child abuse would be a parent tearing down a child by telling them there “not worth it”; they “will never be good enough “or even going as far as putting their hands on a child or someone else in front a child.
Child maltreatment has been extensively studied in the past decades and it has shown to cause significant risks for both psychological and biological development. Although these risks arise during childhood, they often initiate a negative developmental cascade that continues throughout the life span . Because of the pervasive effect child maltreatment promotes, research in this field has a critical role in both exploring which developmental processes child maltreatment influences and for improving the quality of clinical, legal and policy-making decisions for maltreated children . Research in child maltreatment, however, has also the role of informing how to develop interventions which meet the specific psychological needs of maltreated children

Making the situation worse, the conflict that forced them from their homes may destabilize the region in which they've sought refuge.
