Where's the shame in a bathtime cuddle?

Article Abstract:

There is a growing feeling in modern society in the UK against adults being naked when children are around, even in a family context. Indeed, some parents are now afraid to allow their children to see them naked, as they are worried about being accused of paedophilia or child abuse. This aversion to nakedness can be damaging to children, as it robs them of an important way of feeling at ease with their bodies. It is obviously important that children are protected from paedophiles, but it is also important to protect intimacy within families.

For families left behind

Article Abstract:

The support group Parents of Murdered Children explains that people who have not experienced losing a child through murder cannot comprehend it. Female police officers may offer compassion besides professional expertise. The support of the local community is invaluable. Parents need to know what happened in the child's last hours. Research by Liverpool University showed that most people felt they had inadequate information and their imagination was worse than the truth.

When families pay for a child's bad habit

Article Abstract:

A drug abuser can have a profound impact on his or her family, and this is a problem which is now receiving cosiderable attention. The manifestations of drug abuse are usually felt most strongly within the addict's family, and family relationships can be completely destroyed. A number of organisations are now working to make the authorities aware of the needs of the families of drug users.
