Every year in the U.S., approximately one in 25 children is
reported as a victim of prenatal substance abuse, criminal neglect, or physical or
emotional violence, and child-protection agencies are being overwhelmed by the crisis.
Filmed on location in Baltimore, Atlanta, Houston, and Seattle, this cautionary program
narrated by Susan Sarandon examines the cycle of child abuse. Case studies include
children with developmental difficulties caused by maternal drug addiction, post-traumatic
stress disorder brought on by scenes of extreme violence in the home, and life-threatening
injuries from beatings. An HBO production. (61 minutes, color)
