I hope the child does well. I found it very interesting the various sentences that were meted out for different child abuse incidents. There doesn't seem, to me, to be much consistency.....only 2 years for one....Wow.
Sadly, as a SPED teacher, I worked with so many kids who were in my classroom, solely due to abuse, that caused permament brain damage, vision impairment, or other disabilities. Those children need care for the rest of their lives, many of them severely, multiply impaired.
People who abuse children may go to jail, but ultimately, I believe they will face their real punishment after this life. They have "earned" their place in everlasting Hell. There is no punishment here on Earth that equals delibrately hurting a defenseless, innocent child.

What percentage of the kids would you say were in special ed because of child abuse? I see the ones in EI classes, not the ones with physical disabilities, and that group is about 85% abuse victims.
(But let me add that being brutalized by a group of adult survivors of child abuse in the general population of a prison is about the best-fitting punishment I can think of for child abusers. They're outnumbered, they're helpless, and nobody cares if they live or die. Not that different from what their own victims go through.)
I am not sure about percentage, because that is not really documented, just the disability, not the cause. As for child abusers in prison, many are in gen pop, because they don't always tell what their crime is..or if it was very public, they are in isolation.
What a beautiful kid...a miracle that he is alive, but so sad that he will have to suffer for the rest of his life because of what his father did to him. Unfortunately, as much as I would love to believe child abusers in prison are getting beaten daily and suffering, more than likely they are happily lifting weights, playing dominos, watching tv, and socializing with fellow criminals like they are carefree college students. The real punishment for them won't be until they are in hell.
