Elder Abuse statistics in US
July 31, 2005
The first major study of elder abuse, The National Elder Abuse Incidence Study by The National Center on Elder Abuse in US documents that 53 percent of the abusers were male and 47 percent female. Children, adolescents, people with special needs, and the elderly, regardless of gender, often do not have the physical or economic power to defend themselves against physical assaults and emotional neglect. Indisputable data documents this behavior is exhibited, by the strong against the weak, regardless of gender.
