Question: Shaken Baby Syndrome Poem? Each year 1,000,000 children are victims of child abuse. It is reported that 3 children a day die from the effects of abuse or neglect. Homicide is the leading cause of injury related deaths in children 5 years of age or younger. 25% of these homicides are as a result of Shaken Baby Syndrome. There has to be a way to reduce this number. This number is staggeringly too high. This is too many young lives that have been changed forever. Shaken Baby Syndrome not only effects the children that fall victim to it. Their families and other loved ones are also effected by it in many ways. I heard of a poem that was written by one such victims family. I was looking for this poem to use when I give my speech on this topic next week. However I have been unable to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
