Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Ages
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ages
Should adults who were abused as children be allowed to adopt children?
“In one long-term study, as many as 80 percent of young adults who had been abused met the diagnostic criteria for at least one psychiatric disorder at age 21. These young adults exhibited many problems, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and suicide attempts (Silverman, Reinherz, & Giaconia, 1996). Other psychological and emotional conditions associated with abuse and neglect include panic disorder, dissociative disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, depression, anger, posttraumatic stress disorder, and reactive attachment disorder (Teicher, 2000; De Bellis & Thomas, 2003; Springer, Sheridan, Kuo, & Carnes, 2007).”

Hi Vilma,
As an abuse survivor i feel i can not give an unbiased answer. I do have to voice that your information is wrong. I have been in therapy and counseling since 18 yrs. I was resigned to never have children from fear of abusing. I wanted more than anything for the abuse to end with me.
My counselor told me that 99% of women abused as a child never abuse children. In fact they are more protective of their children. With my counselors resounding approval and a second opinion did i finally decide to have children. At age 30.
I didn’t listen as closely to the male stats since it didn’t affect me. If i remember correctly the odds were higher for an abused man to end up abusing a child.
