Victimization during childhood, such as child maltreatment, is also associated with several other risk factors for violent victimization in adulthood, including alcohol and drug use... Research on the victimization of children and youth indicates that not only direct victimization but also witnessing violence is traumatic for children and constitutes a form of victimization...

Divorce reformers called to the eradication of fault ground and adversary proceedings and for attention to the emotional, social and economic aspects of divorce. In response, legislative reform of divorce codes did occur in the late 1960s and 1970s when no-fault statutes began to be adopted and institutionalized through the country. 3, record 7, English, - fault%20ground

To get a divorce, you can use the "fault grounds" or the "marriage breakdown" situation. There are a number of fault ground for divorce. These include, for example, that he has committed adultery, that he is grossly addicted to alcohol or narcotics, that he spent a certain amount of time in prison, on that he is guilty of "cruelty" toward you. There are other "fault grounds’ for divorce, but the ground of cruelty is of particular interest to battered women. 4, record 7, English, - fault%20ground

The first six items of the Code relate to primary prevention : no smoking, moderate alcohol intake, no excessive exposure to sunlight, respect safety instructions, regular consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables as well as high-fiber foods, and avoid excessive body weight. The last four items concern secondary prevention. They recommend to see a physician in the case of a changing beauty spot, an appearing nodule, an abnormal blood loss, a persistent cough or hoarse voice, a persistent stool change or an unexplained loss of body weight. Women are advised to examine their breast regularly, to have a smear of the cervix uteri periodically, and to have mammographies taken as from the age of 50. 1, record 9, English, - European%20cancer%20code

A word acquiring new meaning in 1991 is : COMMUNITARIANISM. Local citizens are scared of crime, and some are arguing that expansive notions of civil liberties must yield to community rights at times. Communitarians contend, for example, that civil libertarians should abandon objections to measures such as drunk-driving check-points, antiloitering ordinances, prosecuting drug-using pregnant women and police questioning of "suspicious" persons to combat rampant drug and alcohol abuse. They also want to make divorce laws more "prochild" by making it harder for couples with kids to untie the knot. 3, record 10, English, - communitarianism
