CHILD ABUSE IS AN EPIDEMIC

Children today, are the future of tomorrow
Why destroy a life before it starts
A world problem that's overlooked
I can't understand why we mistreat our kids

Society condones this criminal offense
Where not enough attention is given
As parents, home violence must stop
We must be more accountable to our kids

Case loads are of epidemic proportions
Which are tolerated by the court system
We get frustrated when no action is taken
Cradling the law into our own hands

Someone please help, I'm crying for help!
It's difficult to face such an environment
Your self esteem and respect are shattered
This is an epidemic of child abuse
