New class to address problem
of child abuse in United States
By Kirsten Bolin
Of Sm Baarald
Child abuse in the United States and the
politics that surround it will be the major issues
of a new class being offered at the University this
term.
The political science class. Child Protective
Policies, will be taught by John Drew, a visiting
assistant professor in the political science
department.
Drew says there are no technical barriers to
ending child abuse in this country. Abusive
parents could be quickly detected and controlled
if society would allow child protective workers to
screen new parents and conduct the same home
visiting practice common in Western Europe.
“1 don’t think there’s something that makes
us more abusive than other cultures," Drew says.
"But child abuse isn't an issue in other
countries.”
The child abuse problem in the United States
stems from the fact that people trained to
recognize and deal with child abuse, such as
teachers, do not see potential victims until they
begin school at age five or six. Drew says.
In Europe, protective workers screen new
parents and visit the homes where parents live
with their children.
"Visiting nurses go door-to-door, giving free
diapers and baby formula and checking on the
children," Drew says.
The difficulty in the United States is that ef
fective measures such as these are unpopular
with both liberals and conservatives, he says.
Liberals fear such strong measures would be used
to harass the poor, while conservatives fear they
would give the state too much power over the
family, he says.
"We seem to believe that child abuse is the
price we pay for freedom," Draw says.
The class will focus on Americans' in
dividualistic styles of child-rearing and in
vestigate the impact of American political institu
tions and political culture on such issues as
physical abuse and neglect, emotional abuse, sex
abuse, detection, teenage pregnancy and
childhood poverty. Drew says.
Guest speakers and class discussion also will
be integral parts of the course, he says. People
who deal with child abuse on a daily basis, such
as juvenile court judges, representatives from
Planned Parenthood and the state's Child Protec
tive Sen-ices division, are possible speakers, he
says.
in an effort to increase interest in the course,
the political science department has sent informa
tion about it to various child-oriented organiza
tions such as community service offices and
elementary schools, Drew says.
"We’re very much hoping to attract com
munity members to the class," he says.
The course will be offered Monday evenings
from 7 to 8:50. and will begin Jan. 13. For more
information, contact Drew at 686-4877.
