When we look at the staggering statistics of how babies and children are valued in some societies in history it makes one cringe. According to one site almost 58 million babies have been aborted in the United State since Roe v Wade in 1973 and the same site reports that over 1 billion 300 million have been aborted since 1980 throughout the world.
Also, many children who have come into this world have been abused in various ways.
CHILDREN are dependent on adults for care, training, security and protection. Sadly, children have been neglected, and have been emotionally and physically abused in many ways. The statistics are staggering. According to one online site 40 million children are subjected to abuse worldwide each year. In the US, this same site also reported that 78% of all child abuse is from neglect. This site also lists some other sobering statistics.
