What explains the hidden epidemic of child abuse in America?

On the next Your Call, we'll talk about child abuse -- why it's so pervasive and why it still remains so hidden. The Guardian recently reported that, "Over the past decade, more than 20,000 American children have been killed their own family members -- that is nearly four times the number of US soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan." What explains this? And what solutions can we find to this hidden crisis? Join us at 10 or email us at feedback@yourcallradio.org. How can we educate children and adults to prevent child abuse? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar.

Guests:
Dr. Seema Jilani, pediatrician at Texas Childrens Hospital and freelance journalist

Robyn Roberts, training advocate with Marin Advocates for Children

Michael Petit, president of Every Child Matters Education Fund
