Final Blog

I think that the most valuable part of the blogging process is that others can read your blog posting and let you know what they thought about them and what you can do to improve your writing. I think that by seeing what others think about your writing, it can help you to make your writing the best it can be. I think that by using the blog it helped me to manage my time in writing my essays and by having certain things due referring to my topic it kept me on track and able to finish all my essays. The piece of writing that i am most proud of on my blog is my introduction paragraph about child abuse. I think that in the future you can use blogs to help all kids, not only the kids in writing the essay class, to share their college essay so that they can get feedback on it and help them to perfect their essay.

Intro

One out of every four girls and one out of every six boys will have suffered some form of sexual abuse by their 18th birthday. Around 5,000 children are being sexually abused, in the tri-state area, often by the people they trust the most. Approximately 80% of child abuse is perpetrated by a parent or caregiver. A parent and a caregiver should never do that to their child. They are not really a parent if they do such things because no good parent would want to afflict that pain and trauma in their child's live. A good parent would make sure that this would never happen to their own child. It is sad to think that some kids will never feel safe in their own home.
These abused children range from young infants to teenagers. They reside in every corner of our counties and come from every type of family.

The reason why I decided to start my paper with a fact is because most people have no idea how much child abuse is really taking place around them. Also i thought by starting with a fact that most people do not know, it will intrigue the reader to read on.

The one thing that i wanted to know from the reader is , whether or not it was a good idea to start the paper off with a fact like that? Do u think that was a good way of making the reader want to read on.

The problem/ what we can do to help

In my final essay for this class i am going to be writing about child abuse. I will focus on what the main problem is and what we can do to help prevent child abuse from increasing in the future. After searching the web and looking at many websites, there was one that stood out the most to me that talked about the problem.

One out of every four girls and one out of every six boys will have suffered some form of sexual abuse by their 18Th birthday. Around 5,000 children are being sexually abused, in the tri-county area, often by the people they trust the most. These abused children range in age from very young infants to the toughest teenagers. They reside in every corner of our counties and come from every socioeconomic strata and type of family.

We need to do what ever it takes so that these facts decrease more and more each year. No child should have to go trough that pain for doing nothing wrong. If you see or know any child that is suffering from some type of abuse, then it is your job to report it right a way. If you don't report something as serious as this, then you are just as much to blame as the person who is abusing the child. You know that something is happening to a child and it is wrong and you don't report it, it is like you think that abusing your child is an ok thing to do. Some people might think that it is not their place to step in and might feel like they are intruding on someones family life that is none of their business, but it might just help safe the life of some child.

Another thing that we can do to help decrease these facts is to talk to our kids at a young age and teach them the proper way of expressing their anger. Also be a role model to your child. You child learns form what he or she see and if he or she sees that you are abusing some one that you love then they will think that it is ok to do that so they will do that to the people they love.
