I personally think that child abuse is increasing day by day as divorce is.

In majority cases that i heard on child abuse is somehow connected with the step parents, they don't seem to get along or they are simply jealous of the sharing relationship.

Last year, the majority of children have reported of being mistreating, abusing, hurting by their step parents, most if the time when they are being alone at home!

And as a conclusion i would say that divorced parents should think well before going for another relation or parents should think of their children before getting divorced.

So, what's your opinion on this, do you agree that most of the children are being abused by their step parents?

This is very true. Recently there has been a sad case, where a girl of 3 years old was died coz she has been beaten by her step father. This is one cases among so many thousands, loads of them are not reported.

The step parents turned into monsters towards their step children. It's very sad and I really hope seriously things are done to protect children.

Yes i do agree, simply because this is the bitter truth!
Step parents are responsible for the ill treatment of their children and i feel that this should be taken into consideration as it is increasing day by day, the punishment for step parents who illtreat or abuse their children should be strictly penalized!

Well, for every little thing that we do in life, we have to think thoroughly, it's not a matter of relationship, indeed we should not forget our children, but we must bear in mind that life's not always what we desire. We can't expect much from life ... So thinking too much sometimes makes life much more difficult

Not the majority but most of them!
Why do children have to be careful, they are children afterall, its the grown up ones who should understand them! Even If they are not careful, that doesn't mean they should be illtreated!

Then its the parent's fault for allowing someone who is hurting their child get away with it. No one should have to beat or hurt a child in any way! It is not acceptbale....that is really sad but too many have died at the hands of the step parents or own parents!

My neighbour a nice woman unfortunately, her hubby has left him for another woman. She has two cute daughters and she re-married to a gentleman. The man really gives a lot of affection to his family. He treats them like his own children. He even say to all the people that they are his daughters. The girls are very happy with him.

So I wouldn't say that all step parents are bad, there are few who have a heart for the children.

Most children are beng abused by both step parents and parents also.
I have notice that some parents who are being unfair with their own children, that is discrimination, mostly the girls, i have seen that many girls are being mistreated and reject by their own parents for the reason that they expected to give birth to a boy and unluckily it was a girl and for that they remove all their frustrations on poor girls!
This is not fair!
