Questions posed on visual text above:
1. What does the writer want to convey with the caption: ‘Some things can’t be healed with bandages’?
The writer wants the viewers to know even if bandages are used to heal the wound left on the body by the abuser, the emotional pain inside his heart is something that cannot be healed so easily. The inner pain, the feeling of helplessness and lack of love needs to be healed with care and love.
2. What is effective of the color use?
The image is in black and white to portray the feelings of the abused child. When the child is abused, he/she feels helpless, vulnerable and lost. To emphasise all these negative feelings, a monochrome colour scheme has been picked for this visual text.
3.How do you think the issue can be solved?
Actions that call for care for the abused children need to be taken. As child abuse happens due to the ignorance of adults to the child's feelings, parents need to consider that the violence they use has bad effects on the child mentally and physically. The community can hold lectures on family bonding and educate abusive parents on how and why they should treat their children well. If any other cases are known of, the informants need to report them to the authorities in time so that they can aid the child/children being abused.
