Domestic violence and abuse

There is a huge rise in domestic violence incidents and a long line of murdered women and abused children. The result of this escalating social menace is also reflected on other societal trends like street and school fights , extortion and humiliation on social media amongst school children and so on and so forth.

Is the root cause a wrong upbringing in early childhood , is it poverty, is it a criminal mind? Whatever the root cause may be governments could and should take additional measures especially when it comes to innocent children's lives.

There should be a regular sexual and violent abuse monitoring by doctors for children of all ages with emphasis on those pure souls that cannot even describe what is going on in the nightmare they call home and family, namely those under 5 years old. Society has a duty to protect the vulnerable and the innocent first and above all if we want to promote emotional and psychological health. 

This should be done regularly by professionals in health facilities in order to make sure no monster adults are taking advantage of the new generation, the one who is meant to lead forward humanity. 

To fully extend this policy everywhere is important,  whether these are <<normal>> households, refugee hot spots, orphanages  and wherever babies -teenagers are being raised or temporarily kept.

As for women a one time incident should be enough and measures should be taken to effectively protect them from male violence. There are measures in place  but they do not seem to be adequate so far. 

Education should offer a separate course adjusted for all ages. Abuse should never be tolerated in a modern society under no circumstances. It is a problem that reflects every time in the future in a never ending cycle- the abused abuse most of the time whether be it themselves or others.
