Checking for Child Abuse

My petition is set forth to attempt to decrease the child abuse rates in our country. There are several types of abuse and more than 4 children die each day as a result of this. Every year more than 3 million reports of child abuse are made in the United States and with a rising economy this should be considered unacceptable! As a young soldier of the United States Army Reserves, I am aware that America sets out to be superior, to set the standards for other countries, but how could that be possible if our children are suffering such abuse and nothing is being done to prevent it? I have a big heart and I strive to make sure that our future leaders are in the best hands. If anyone else wants the same. They would sign this petition!
