Post image for Working Mothers = Abuse To Their Children?

Ever since the time women decided to work rather than stay at home, there has been controversy that these mothers are in the wrong. Many women don’t think twice about going back to work once their children are born, and some women simply don’t have that luxury, they must go back to work.

According to MomLogic.Com, psychologists believe that most Americans abuse their kids. Handing their children off to another caregiver seems similar to neglecting their child’s needs.

Post image for Number of Pre-Teens Abusing Inhalants Raises Concerns

Inhalants such as aerosol computer cleaners, glue, hair sprays, paint solvents and gasoline are used by many pre-teens to get high. It is more common for 12-year-olds to get high from inhalants rather than other drugs such as marijuana, cocaine and hallucinogens. According to HealthDay.com, more 12-year-olds have used inhalants to get high than all these other drugs combined. These inhalants can be deadly, yet almost seven percent of 12-year-olds say they have sniffed inhalants to get high. “Huffing” or sniffing these drugs can cause sudden death from cardiac arrest, and people who use these products to get high take the risk of getting addicted.
