If I had limited money i would spend it to support the primary prevention program regarding maltreatment. The primary prevention program is to make injuries less likely to occur overall.
The reason I would not spend my money on Tertiary prevention is because it tries to prevent permanent injuries but most of the time the prevention occurs too late because an injury has already occured. Since primary prevention focused on preventing injuries overall there is a better chance that a child will not be injured because of maltreatment. This just seems like better prevention program because it is very well rounded and does not just focus on one specific issue like secondary prevention and tertiary. Streets would be safer to play on for our children and parents would not be as worried about their kids all the time. Especially when a parent leaves their child with a baby sitter. Parents would not have to worry as much about baby sitters being careless with their children. I just think primary prevention program is overall a better program and that is what i would spend my money on.

agreed. "prevention" is the idea not "fixing" after the problem occurs
I agree with both of you..prevention happens before fixing..there would be no fixing if prevention occured!
Preventing something from happening is the best way to make sure that nothing happens afterwards. Agreed
I agree, like I said in my post its better to be proactive then reactive. And I honstly think it would save lots of money.
