ANNUAL CHECK-UP on our culture... thoughts by (me!) ~topps
on a recent well check visit to the doctors, it struck me in a more profound way,
how the doctor and/or nurse is required to ask every. individual. patient. whether or not they are in an abusive relationship.
"are you being hit? physically or emotionally abused?"
is that not the saddest commentary on our culture as a whole? that every patient is asked this question.
and i haven't researched it, but am curious.. is this true for California? the whole united states?
is there anywhere where this question would seem ridiculous, that you would have to ask every patient whether or not they are being abused?
we should at least be working toward a culture and world, where asking this question of every single patient becomes unnecessary.
exactly how prevalent is abuse?
-things to think on and pray about; amen.
