Abused Children

Famous quotes containing the words abused and/or children:

    Let those possess the land, and only those,
    Who love it with a love so strong and stupid
    That they may be abused and taken advantage of
    And made fun of by business, law, and art....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    We are seeing an increasing level of attacks on the “selfishness” of women. There are allegations that all kinds of social ills, from runaway children to the neglected elderly, are due to the fact that women have left their “rightful” place in the home. Such arguments are simplistic and wrongheaded but women are especially vulnerable to the accusation that if society has problems, it’s because women aren’t nurturing enough.
    Grace Baruch (20th century)
