Child Abuse

This advertisement against domestic violence shows a small child hiding his face behind a picture of what it looks to be a representation of violence between his parents. The ad slogan says " If there is domestic violence, the kids get the picture", this is a message to help parents understand that domestic violence can affect the childhood of your son. It is normal for children to feel scared to share how they feel, many times they illustrate their thoughts through drawings. Children who witness domestic violence show significantly higher rates on all measures of childhood distress including behavioral and physical health problems such as depression, anxiety and peer violence. The advertisement also says " Domestic violence, it is your business" which is a message for parents to be aware and take responsibility for the environment they create around their children. Domestic violence is a form of child abuse and can create a negative impact on any kid´s future.
