SS Dine At One Of These Fine Restaurants .i THE LAW SERVES YOU LAW DEFINES CHILD ABUSE AUTHORIZES SOCIAL SERVICES What constitutes child abuse - legally -- and how prevalent is it in Illinois? According to the Illinois State Bar association, child abuse is defined by law as an "injury or disability from physical abuse or neglect...or evidence of malnutrition" inflicted upon any person under 16 years of age " other than by accidental means." The history of reporting child abuse in Illinois is a short one, covering only three years since the state's first Child Abuse Act was adopted in 1965. The law requires hospitals, physicians and other practitioners to report suspected child abuse cases that may come to their attention. It protects the hospitals and individuals from liability if it turns out that the child had not been abused. In the past three years, some 1,400 incidents of suspected child abuse have been reported to the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. About 50 percent of the incidents reported involve children under three years of age. Here are some examples: The mother of a two year old girl burned her with cigarettes and matches, beat her with fists and repeatedly fractured her skull and other bones. The stepfather of a sevenmonth old girl threw her across the room because she wouldn't eat her breakfast. But child abuse is not always easy to detect. One child, for example, was addicted to narcotics by being breast fed by an addict mother. Abuse of the child became evident only when he was separated from the mother and experienced severe "withdrawal" symptoms. The intent of the Child Abuse Act is not to penalize parents but, as stated in the law, "to prevent further abuses to the child, to safeguard his welfare and to preserve and e fa mil Children and Family Services may offer social services designed to improve the home environment. While no specific penalties are provided in the Act, the ISBA states that a person who abuses a child may be prosecuted under provisions of the Criminal Code. Charges have ranged from simple assault or contributing to delinquency Or neglect to murder. If removal of the child from the home is deemed necessary, the Department may petition the court for custody and, if it is granted, may place the child in a foster home or suitable child care institution. Meanwhile, the Department will work with the parents to prepare for the child's safe return. at the VIRGINIAN 884 VIRGINIA STREET Roast Young Turkey, dressing - $3.50 Boast Sirloin of Beef, au jus - - $3.50 Baked Virginia Ham, fruit sauce - $3.50 Tomato Juice Cream of Chicken Soup Mixed Vegetables Waldorf Assorted Desserts or Tossed Salad Qhildren's Portions - $2.00 under 8 years of age Dining Room Serving 12 - 6 p.m. Make Your Reservation Now TELEPHONE 459-4761 or 459-9898 We serve a traditional THANKSGIVING DINNER for the entire family, plus I 1-7. .H | | our regular menu j I Dinner from 11:00 a.m. I I I J Reservations J | Preferred I ALSO A FINE SELECTION OF ITALIAN FOOD 1 RESTAURANT - MOTEL - COCKTAIL LOUNGE PRIVATE DINING ROOM FOR PARTIES PHONE 678-6617 outes 12 and 31 stabilize family life whenever possible."
