“The theme of the speech will be "building a safe, strong and proud America," a senior administration official told reporters, and the president will tout his "record-setting" accomplishments, which are "lifting all Americans." The speech will reflect on his first year in office and highlight the country's economic upswing” (Taylor). America stands as one, rises as one, and makes change happen as one. As Americans build a safe, strong and proud America, they change the way the economic status results. Which, as a outcome, the change that Americans can do, it could reform the way people take care of children. Around the world, child abuse is a serious issue.

According to Amanda Hermes, “PCANY reports that 50 to 70 percent of men who abuse their female partners also abuse their children” (Hermes) Neither parents nor abusers can automatically stop abusing their child.

Recently a family by the last name of Turpins have had a serious issue with abusing their children. According to Faith Karimi, the children would “sleep during the day and stay awake at night, sometimes chained to their beds and not allowed to use the restroom, according to authorities. What started as neglect escalated into years of horrific torture, authorities said, with the parents allegedly depriving the children of water and feeding them small portions of food on a strict schedule” (Karimi). Things that these parents did to the children were outrageously idiotic. Again, Americans can take a stand and change
He implements this emotional appeal into his speech to involve all Americans—people living in the United States of America, regardless of their ethnicity, race, or culture, and to acknowledge that the American people have endured this together, and that they will continue to advance after this event with stronger resolve, stronger than ever. In addition, he implements personification to motivate and empower the American people. “Our nation, this generation, will lift a dark threat of violence from our people and our future” (Bush, 2001). “This generation”, again a synonym for the American people, with its unwavering resolve, will fight for its freedom persistently.

Obama tells us that that is our task, alluding to the Declaration of Independence, to “make these words, rights, these values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness real for every American” is a task that we will all go through together as one to achieve for all.

Child abuse in general is quite complex and at the same time one of the most challenging social issue facing people all around the USA. Child abuse cases have been recorded in all the states of the USA. The cases occur in all areas be it cities, small towns, suburbs, and even in rural areas.

Child abuse in the United States is a growing epidemic. Every year the number of reported cases, and missing children go up.

Child abuse is recognized in several forms; physical, emotional, sexual and neglect. Children who experience any form of abuse will tend to withdraw themselves from their peers and sometimes from other family members who are not aware of what is taking place. Child abuse occurs not just in the homes of these children, but can also occur in schools, churches and after school programs. Anywhere a child is present there is a chance that abuse can occur.

In a quotation by Barack Obama on November 4, 2008, he says “That is the true genius of America-that America can change. Our union can be perfected. And what we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow”. Obama's inauguration speech mirrors the ideas expressed by that quote. Barack Obama's message in his speech is that through hope and change, we can pull the country out of recession, out of turmoil, and out of any difficult tasks we'll have ahead of us. What we have achieved shows that we can achieve it again, and the only reason these feats were achieved was because we were one nation working together.

They may also internalize their behavior by becoming depressed and showing symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
