Lydia Circle Meeting (Parlor). Documentary and discussion by Linda Shriver. The HBO documentary, BROKEN CHILD examining child abuse in the United States. Through a cross-section of cases involving both children and parents, the documentary examines how children's behavior can be adversely impacted by the destructive forces of adults -- and shows the evolving cycle of family violence that continues with each generation. BROKEN CHILD depicts how the complex and cumulative effects of child abuse, neglect, and trauma can lead to mental illness and violent or anti-social behavior. The message of BROKEN CHILD, to me, is a stark reality; that when children become emotionally or psychologically damaged that the damage is very hard to undo. no matter what the therapy or how skilled the therapist. So the lesson of the BROKEN CHILD is prevention and early intervention.
