			<description><![CDATA[Sky.. you are very much correct. Lion Man, its like you read my mind. The seeds of our future are being destroyed. In addition what are the penalties for things like education neglect? We need to seriously start thinking about making provisions for taking children out of these negative environments. Perhaps a method before doing this is to force parents found guilty of neglect to attend parenting cl**. Parents need to be made aware of ready resources to assist them, especially those in a physically abusive situation. I suspect much of this is more prominent in the non national community where both local and non -national men prey looking for victims with no place to turn. ...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Even though finances and poverty play a large role in why abuse occurs there also has to be acknowledgment that poor parenting is also a main factor. The rise of younger mothers and an increase in single parents displays a reason for the rise in the number of abused children. Single mothers deal with multiple men coming into the home and these men have no care for the younger girl in the home and the abuse in either of the categories occur. Parenting cl** needs to be implemented to help these families function better and secure a safe environment for the child. I would like to know what are the policies to fight this rising issue in the Caribbean and in Antigua and Barbuda. The statistics displayed is also lacking updated information despite 3 year old statistics are good it limits the ability to have better understand of what is going on and if the numbers are increasing or decreasing. There should be a field study conducted to acquire more updated understanding. How are these children being counseled to eleminate the cycle.]]></description>
