Why?

I can think of little else that angers me more than child abuse. In many cases little children four or five years old suffer unspeakable atrocities at the hands of their own parent/ parents. Some depraved people get pleasure out of the pain and misery of others, especially the most helpless ones. It makes no difference to them that the victim is their very own child. The poor child cries out for mercy yet none is shown. The suffering of these little ones is enough to make even calloused hearts boil and to cry out for justice. A while back I read an account of a young man born in a prison camp in North Korea. He was mercilessly abused and even tortured at the hands of the evil prison guards. His only crime was that his parents were political prisoners. He was left to die, but recovered and eventually became the first person to ever escape from that prison camp. He is deeply scarred from the abuse he suffered. There are thousands more children just like him, and at this very moment are suffering terrifying cruelty.
