Best answer:

Answer by manderin
No child EVER needs to be abused, whether or not their parents have alcohol or drug problems, or they are angry. Children are not born in this world to be treated that way, at all, ever. Parents are supposed to be the adults who teach their children the difference between right and wrong, good and bad..so by abusing, they are just idiots. Children need to be taught and abuse is never the answer.

Answer by Rhonda B
# When thinking about statistics on child abuse, it is helpful to know that the very idea of “child abuse” is controversial.

Why Is There a Higher Rate of Child Abuse in Foster Homes Than in the General Population?

Question by Sparkle Jumprope Queen: Why is there a higher rate of child abuse in foster homes than in the general population?
Children in foster care experience high rates of child abuse, emotional deprivation, and physical neglect. In one study in the United Kingdom “foster children were 7–8 times, and children in residential care 6 times more likely to be assessed by a pediatrician for abuse than a child in the general population”.[14] One study by Johns Hopkins University found that the rate of sexual abuse within the foster-care system is more than four times as high as in the general population; in group homes, the rate of sexual abuse is more than 28 times that of the general population.[15][16] An Indiana study found three times more physical abuse and twice the rate of sexual abuse in foster homes than in the general population.[16] A study of foster children in Oregon and Washington State found that nearly one third reported being abused by a foster parent or another adult in a foster home.[17] These statistics do not speak to the situation these children are coming from, but it does show the very large problem of child-on-child sexual abuse within the system.
