Poor anger management is the primary cause of physical abuse resulting in serious injury or death of children.  In 2004, it is estimated that 1,490 children died due to child abuse or neglect.  Over 80% of the children who were killed were younger than four years old, approximately 12% were four to seven years old, 4% were eight to eleven years old, and 3% were twelve to seventeen years old. 

Shaken Baby Syndrome, an injury directly related to poor anger management skills, in which a parent, usually the mother of the child, becomes angry, and shakes the baby, causing severe brain damage, affects between 1,200 and 1,600 children every year.  Approximately 25% to 30% of these babies die each year, and nonfatal consequences of this lack of anger management skills, include varying degrees of visual impairment, motor impairment such as cerebral palsy, and cognitive impairment. For Federal fiscal year 2004, an estimated three million children were alleged to have been abused or neglected and received investigations or assessments by State and local child protective services (CPS) agencies. Approximately 872,000 children were determined to be victims of child maltreatment.  This loss of precious life was due to child neglect and abuse.  Every, single case of children dying from physical abuse were the result of poor anger management, poor anger management due to mental defect, or poor anger management due to mental defect due to substance abuse.

Though the cost of a precious life can not be measured in dollars and cents, the direct costs (judicial, law enforcement and health system responses to child maltreatment) are estimated at over twenty-four billion dollars each year.  The indirect costs (long-term economic consequences of child maltreatment) exceed an estimated sixty-nine billion dollars annually.  In the vast majority of cases, the abusive parent or parents were abused when they were children.  This is a curse that keeps on giving, and is handed down from generation to generation, due to a destructive cycle of poor anger management resulting in the abuse of children.
