Child Abuse Is A Crime Poem by Suzanna C Chevalier

Now you might say
“What causes crime? ”
I know it’s not treating a kid bad instead of kind.
See, it’s abusing them with a whip
or hitting them with a stick.
Now, why do we put adults in jail for the above
but we justify it’s not a crime
because our parents did this to us with love?
I don’t think so, there is no, no, no
Excuse for Abuse.
Get some help before you have a kid
keep this planet a better place if only you did.
