The report – Global Status Report on Preventing Violence Against Children 2020 – is the first of its kind, charting progress in 155 countries against the “INSPIRE” framework, a set of seven strategies for preventing and responding to violence against children. The report signals a clear need... in all countries to scale up efforts to implement them. While nearly all countries (88%) have key laws in place to protect children against violence, less than half of countries (47%) said these were being strongly enforced.
The report includes the first ever global homicide estimates specifically for children under 18 years of age – previous estimates were based on data that included 18 to 19-year olds. It finds that, in 2017, around 40,000 children were victims of homicide.

Расстройства, проявляющиеся в детском и подростковом возрасте дезорганизованным поведением, встречаются достаточно часто и связаны с серьезными нарушениями фу...кционирования как самих пациентов, так и их семей, а также с выраженной в разной степени недостаточной психологической адаптацией на более поздних стациях развития (Ford et al, 2003; Burke et al, 2005; Copeland et al, 2009; KimCohen et al, 2003; Costello et al, 2003). Проблемы, связанные с нарушением социального поведения, связаны также с повышенными социальными затратами: установлено, что к 28 годам средства, потраченные на лиц, у которых в детстве отмечалось антисоциальное поведение, в 10 раз выше, чем в общей популяции (Scott et al, 2001a).
