Deployment raises abuse risk in military families 5/14/07 New York (Reuters Health) "Children in military families are at greater risk of maltreatment after a parent is deployed to conflict areas -- and after the parent returns, a new study suggests. The rate of child maltreatment doubled among Texas military families in the nine months after October 2002, when Congress gave President George Bush the go-ahead to send troops to Iraq, the researchers found. "Both departures to and returns from operational deployment impose stresses on military families and likely increase the rate of child maltreatment," Dr. E. Danielle Rentz of the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill and her colleagues write in the American Journal of Epidemiology. "Such increases in child maltreatment may also extend to families at risk of being deployed." _http://www.reutershealth.com/archive/2007/05/14/eline/links/20070514elin002.html _ (http://www.reutershealth.com/archive/2007/05/14/eline/links/20070514elin002.html) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
