I believe child abuse is bad because it is endangering a child.  It may not just be physical, but it may be verbal and emotional abuse also.  Which are are all bad. 
Abuse effects the children all their lives.  It effects which direction in life they take.  They may need to feel loved and have low self esteem and it can lead to depression and self destruction.  I believe it could lead to alcoholism, drugs, pregnancy or even stds, self destruction, and even harm on other people, possibly even suicide.
The children who suffer from it hopefully, can get the needed help and counseling.  Also, the abuser.  They may not even know why they are being abusive.  Just because one gets help does not mean it wont effect the rest of their lives they still have the memories and have to live with it daily.  It may always come up later in life to them for no reason and they may have to deal with it all over again. 
Everyone needs a break sometimes, there are usually places you can go for help if you need it.  There are parenting classes, etc.  You just have to look into what your local city offers.
I am not sure about this info.  This is just my opinion.  I am not a professional.  I have suffered from sexual abuse by a neighbor when I was 11, and I still deal with it to this day.

I believe child abuse is terrible because of what it puts a child through. Physical abuse is bound to bring mental pain as well and to constantly verbally assault a child is damage that with create grudges that won't be forgotten even after the abusers death.
The pain that the victims of these kinds of lives are emotionally scared forever whether it shows on the surface or in the depths of their mind. I wish I could say it can be stopped but it's a cycle that presents itself through history and still thrives in the present.
Treating a child like garbage is something that can turn hereditary, those who are abused tend to become the abusers as time progresses and we can offer solutions to help break the unforgivable chain of abuse.

I think child abuse is an issue I was abused at a younger age and I think when being abused it changed on the way you think and look at life!

Abuse harms the child mentally, physically and teaches the child that it is right to abuse other people.

Because over 4 children everyday are killed from child abuse. And just think about how this can make the kid feel, hurt, alone, scared ect. Would you want to feel that way?!! Just think about all of the effects that the abuse could have on the child later in life, difficulty's making and keeping friends and spouses all because of being abused when you were a kid, thats tragic.

Yes child abuse is bad children who are abuse will pick up the habit of abusing others or there own children.not only that it can cause damages to the child.if children are abused there will be a chance that they will abuse alcohol and become addicted to drugs and one third will later abuse there children.

Child abuse is bad because it warps and affects a developing mind.  The child involved will be harmed in some way -- physically, mentally, sexually -- and they will develop a way of dealing with life because of this abuse.  It is said that such abuse on a child results in the adult criminals we have today.  Any study of the prison population reveals that almost all inmates can relate a story of some form of abuse they endured as a child.

Ultimately, child abuse is bad because we all live to regret its consequences.

The child will then know that as a lifestyle and that will be the only way they'll know how to parent.

Abuse can effect the child and leave behind terrible scars.

The child can easily become anti social and not know how to talk to anybody.

I can't even believe someone would ask such a dumb question. Would you like it if someone who was 10x bigger than you beat you up and you not be able to defend yourself?
