[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thought: DC has the highest rate of teen pregnancy in the nation, in its poorest neighborhoods (ward 7, 8), which are something like 99 percent AA. Teen pregnancy is often the result of abuse, lack of support, lack of strong parenting, poverty, lack of options, but it also produces, among other things, a high risk for child abuse because teen mothers with few resources (including a partner in parenting) quite often lack the financial, emotional and psychological support, strength and maturity to deal with the demands of child rearing in a positive, proactive way. They've not experience positive parenting themselves, and they are in a negative situation. [/quote] I'm sure it's just a coincedence, but DC seems to have the worst child abuse to. At least out in public. There's zero fear of arrest for this kind of child abuse in DC.[/quote]
