CHILD PROTECTION-Neglect Cases

The video talks about Ways to curb Neglect which is a child abuse to children. This has been brought about due Dysfunctional Families.
A dysfunctional family is a family in which conflict, misbehavior and often child neglect or abuse on the part of individual parents occur continuously.
A dysfunctional family are fertile ground for neglect, abuse, secrecy, addiction, or denial. In these family systems, children’s emotional needs go unmet because the parents’ needs take precedence.
One or both parents might be suffering from a substance use disorder, personality disorder, or mood disorder. Sometimes, the adults in these families have authoritarian “my way or the highway” parenting styles or have a toxic and abusive relationship with each other.
In other cases, parents are emotionally immature or unavailable-caught up in workaholism , gambling, overeating, adulterous affairs, or other pursuits.
As an organization, we asked ourselves which intervention can we carry out so that we help to mitigate the cases. We planned for a for a couples seminar which saw both parents turn up to talk about issues affecting them.
We have witnessed reduced cases of Child Neglect and we know with more interventions this will reduce upto zero.
