CHILD ABUSE
HOW
COULD ANYONE SMACK AROUND OR BEAT
A
TINY BABY SO INNOCENT AND SWEET?
THIS
LITTLE ONE DEPENDS ON YOU
TO
HANDLE HIM WITH CARE AND KNOW WHAT TO DO.
HOW
COULD ANYONE GET A THRILL
BY
HAVING SEX WITH AN INFANT, IT'S UNREAL?
HOW
COULD A MOTHER SUFFOCATE HER NEWBORN?
WHEN
YOU THINK ABOUT IT, YOUR HEART FEELS TORN.
THERE
ARE CHILDREN VERBALLY ABUSED EACH DAY.
WE
HAVE TO STOP IT, WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY.
THERE
HAS TO BE SOMETHING, WE EACH CAN DO
TO
MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR THEM AND US, TOO.
NO
CHILD SHOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH
SOME
OF THE INSANE THINGS THAT GROWNUPS CAN DO.
THEIR
LIVES SHOULD BE HAPPY AND CAREFREE.
THAT'S
THE WAY LIFE IS MEANT TO BE.
WE,
AS GROWNUPS HAVE TO WATCH, BE CAREFUL AND ALWAYS AWARE
OF
THOSE AROUND OUR CHILDREN, ANYTIME AND ANYWHERE.
WE
ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHILDREN'S CARE
AND
WHEN THEY'RE GROWN, THEY'LL BE GLAD WE WERE THERE.
