With many American military servicemen residing in Japan to help rebuild the country, unwanted pregnancies between American men and Japanese women were not unusual. However, racially mixed children, particularly of American decent, were viewed as shameful. A culture of shame created an extraordinary influence on Japanese society to marginalize these orphans.
Miki Sawada, having the Japanese Zaibatsu (Big Business Conglomerates) family background (Mitsubishi), used her accumulated resources to provide a safe home for the orphans. She would trade her clothes to obtain food and lost much sleep in order to change countless diapers. Sawada received the Elizabeth Blackwell Award for her outstanding dedication to humanity in 1960.

Ambassador’s Wife
At age 20, Sawada married a Japanese ambassador and converted to Christianity (her husband was Christian). She traveled to several foreign countries with her husband where she met influential people who would affect her later life. One of them was Josephine Baker, an African American entertainer and political activist, who later adopted a dozen orphans from a mixture of racial backgrounds; Baker later adopted two of Sawada’s children. Sawada also befriended a French painter, Marie Laurencin, and an American Nobel Prize novelist, Pearl Buck, who took care of several orphans.

Sawada’s Mission
The war had caused countless families to face death of their love ones, Sawada also had lost one of her youngest sons in the war.
By 1947, her children already being grown adults, her life takes a turn towards a mission she dedicated the rest of her life to. A coincidental incident has changed her life forever – she was accused of abandoning a racially mixed infant on a train; the curly-haired infant was found dead.

Instead of feeling relieved that she was able to prove her innocence, Sawada felt strong mission to save as many innocent lives as she could. Soon after that she convinced herself that it was her mission to raise these children. Many Japanese and Americans viewed her negatively. Some said that it was going to be just a fickle activity by a woman from a wealthy family. However, Sawada kept taking on child after child; she was determined to become a mother to them all. Sawada became a mother for a total of two thousand children

Establishment of Elizabeth Thunders Home
Since the Japanese government was not supportive of Sawada, she used her own resources and solicited for donations overseas. Due to Zaibatsu kaitai (order to dissolve Zaibatsu under the U.S. command), her father was not able to offer her full support. However, in 1948, she was able to gather enough support to buy back one of the family properties and was able to build a school for the orphans. She named the school, “Elizabeth Thunder’s Home”, which was named after a British woman who was the first significant donor for the school.

Moving to Brazil
Sawada spent all her time trying to nurture and protect children from the harsh realities of prejudice in society. However, she realized that as her children grew older, that Japanese society would not accept them as member of society when they matured to adults. Moreover, after leaving her home, some of them would get into trouble and Sawada was often asked to pick them up from police custody.
Realizing that the obstacles her children would face seem indefinite in Japan, she decided to purchase land in Brazil and went with her children to establish a farm and independence. While some had rebelled against her and left, others stayed. Without much success, the farm was finally shut down after 16 years.

Sawada’s Death in Spain
Sawada had always tried to make sure that she remained available to support her children even after they left her home; she kept in contact with as many of them as possible. Although she started out as the mother for the children, she faced many separations as many were adopted out overseas. Sawada often traveled outside Japan to see her children, and dedicated herself to continue her social work for children’s’ welfare.

At age 78, Sawada suffered a heart attack while visiting Spain, and left her legacy behind as a mother of two thousand children.
Look up and Keep Walking

Sawada had often encouraged her children to “look up and keep walking”. She was not only kind but also strict towards her children because she thought it was important for them to be strong to stand against social prejudice. One of her children who was interviewed after her death commented that he was not angry at his birth parents because after all, it was his responsibility to keep walking on his own, regardless of his birth parents. Not all Sawada’s children led a stereotypical happy life, however, they were blessed enough to have Sawada in their life telling them to be proud and keep walking.

It’s a difficult challenge, and one few of us might face in a lifetime. Yet the referral and assessment team in Coventry gets around 40 calls every day about children reported to be at risk. Each one needs to be explored and evaluated, and a decision taken about whether to intervene. Strangely, many of the calls prove to be malicious hoaxes.

But to find out, the social workers must go to a house of strangers likely to be most unhappy about being visited with a view to losing their children. That house, as we saw, may be beyond most people’s imaginations – such as one where an anonymous fax reported faeces smeared on the window. The social workers found the children were playing with it in their catastrophic bedroom. Yet the hapless mother agreed she could not cope, and the social workers eventually persuaded the grandmother to house the children temporarily. Removal into care was not needed – yet.

We went behind the screaming headlines to see how social workers cope with the pressures – the huge caseloads, the paperwork that keeps them office-bound, the lack of staff to whom to pass on emergency cases. It means, as both social workers and clients told us, that only visiting some families once a month means the truth is easy to conceal. All this risk management is in the shadow of hostile media that spread paranoia through the ranks.

And yet many of them are proud of what they do. When they recognised that we play straight with difficult subjects, several councils agreed to let us film. We chose Coventry because of its commitment to openness, tested in many challenging meetings. We came to admire how well it manages, despite the shortcomings. As one of the social workers said, “I don’t know how long people can go on working like this. There’s no lull. It’s just 100mph all the time.” She loves her job, as others we met obviously do, but as she said: “You just would not do this job if you thought about what could actually happen.”

She means another Baby Peter case. Even the supervisors are aware it could happen to any of them. A child dies at the hands of an adult – not a social worker – in their home every six days. That is the national scandal. And we ask these underpaid, unsung people to deal with it as best they can. It’s an emotional and professional marathon. They deserve much more than simple opprobrium when things go wrong.

The CAPTA definition reads: “at a minimum, any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker, which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation, or an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm.”

Types of Child Abuse
With the above definition as a foundation, individual states are responsible for their own definitions of abuse and neglect, falling into one or more of four general categories: Neglect, Physical, Sexual, and Emotional abuse. Below, a brief look at basic characteristics of each category.

Neglect: Failure to provide for a child’s basic needs to allow for proper physical, emotional, and mental growth and development. Lack of proper nourishment, education, safety, clothing, shelter and/or medical care.

Physical: Intentional harm caused to a child’s person by any form of physical assault regardless of intent. Lack of provision of medical care for injured or ill child.

Sexual: Any activity on a child such as fondling of genitals, penetration, incest, rape, sodomy, indecent exposure, and exploitation via pornographic materials and/or prostitution.

Emotional: Psychological damage inflicted on a child by way of threats, insults, extreme punishment, fear, rejection, and isolation, ignoring, or any act or word which hinders positive mental, social, and emotional development.

Recognizing the Signs
Maltreatment can take on any form or combination, including, but not limited to, those listed above. It is important that caregivers, educators, and community members be aware of what to look for when maltreatment is suspected.

Cases must always be considered on an individual basis, with regard to the specifics of the situation. No two abuse patterns are exactly alike and no list of consequential behaviors is ever exhaustive. A single sign may not be indicative of abuse. However, patterns, consistencies or a combination of signs merit a closer look. The following traits are commonly seen in children suffering a type of abuse or neglect:

Physical
• Recurrent bruising, injuries, burns.
• Injuries in the shape of an object (belt buckle,etc).
• Infections indicating delay or neglect of treatment.
• Injuries may be in various stages of healing.
• Lack of hygiene and grooming.
• Soiled clothes, lack of appropriate seasonal wear.

Behavioral
• Sudden change in behavior or school performance.
• Overly compliant, passive, timid, withdrawn.
• Delays going home from school or functions.
• Excuses for injuries that do not seem consistent or believable.
• Frequent absences from or lateness to school.
• Difficulty concentrating, depression.
• Self-destructive/self-abusive behavior.

Sexual Abuse
Signs may be specific to sexual abuse.
• Difficulty sitting or walking.
• Bloodied underwear.
• Genital bruising/tearing.
• Knowledge of a sexual nature inconsistent with age.
• An older child behaving like a younger child (such as bed-wetting or thumb sucking)
• Has new words for private body parts.
• Resists removing clothes when appropriate times (bath, bed, toileting, diapering).
• Asks other children to behave sexually or play sexual games.
• Mimics adult-like sexual behaviors with toys or stuffed animal.
• Wetting and soiling accidents unrelated to toilet training.

Reporting Child Abuse
If you suspect or know a child is being abused, notify a social worker, your local police department.
