Neglect is magic. Neglect, often associated with forgetfulness and carelessness, can actually be a powerful force that can lead to unexpected outcomes. While neglecting something implies a lack of attention or focus, it can also create an opportunity for experimentation, discovery, and innovation. In the realm of creativity, neglect can be a catalyst for thinking outside the box. When one neglects to follow conventional methods or norms, they are free to explore alternative approaches and ideas. This can result in groundbreaking artistic expressions, inventions, and advancements in various fields.

Child Abuse Cases Linked to Witchcraft and Black Magic Have Risen by More Than a Third in England
Cases of child abuse linked to faith or belief—which can include "witchcraft, spirit possession and black magic"—have risen by a third over the past three years in England, according to authorities.
Data released by the Local Government Association (LGA)—the national membership body for local authorities in England and Wales—reveals that these cases have risen from 1,460 to 1,950 between 2016/17 and 2018/2019.
This increase represents a 34 percent rise, with the figures indicating that around 38 cases linked to faith or belief are reported every week.

The figures also show that there were 1,000 reported cases of children undergoing—or being at risk of—female genital mutilation (FGM) between 2018/2019. This represents a rise of 6 percent over 2017/2018 and is a record high.
Although campaigners say that some of the rise can be attributed to the fact that social workers are becoming better at identifying these cases, they say that the figures are still a cause for concern.
"Rising cases of FGM and child abuse linked to faith or belief are extremely worrying and are destroying the lives of children and young people in communities across the country," Anita Lower, the LGA's lead on FGM and Chair of the National FGM Centre's Advisory Board, said in a statement.
"Social workers have become better at identifying the signs of FGM and belief-related abuse, but the true incidence rate is likely to be higher as these crimes are under-reported," she said. "Councils are determined to tackle the practice of FGM and work with partner organisations to do everything possible to protect and support children and young people."
Lower noted that in order to properly protect vulnerable young people, the government needed to ensure that local services have sufficient funding in order to address the problems.
"It is alarming and unacceptable that the number of children affected by child abuse linked to faith and belief and FGM have risen dramatically," Leethen Bartholomew, Head of the National FGM Centre, said in a statement. "While it is positive that cases are being referred and affected children are receiving the care and protection they need, a lot more needs to be done to put an end to these harmful practices."
Bartholomew said that the FGM Centre's goal was to end new cases of female genital mutilation in England by 2030, and protect children from abuse associated with faith or belief.

"In order to achieve this, we need more partnership working, resources to tackle the issue, mandatory training for professionals and more awareness raised among communities," he said.
In the U.K., there have been a handful of child abuse cases linked to faith or belief which have resulted in the death of children, including that of Kristy Bamu, 15, who was killed by her sister and partner during an exorcism in their London home, The Guardian reported.
In a briefing, the Metropolitan Police—which serves the London area—stressed that only a minority of people who believe in witchcraft or possession by spirits actually abuse children
According to U.K. government figures, there were nearly 400,000 "children in need" across the country as of March 31, 2019.
"A child in need is defined under the Children Act 1989 as a child who is unlikely to reach or maintain a satisfactory level of health or development, or their health or development will be significantly impaired without the provision of services, or the child is disabled," a government report read.
Just over half of these children in need were reportedly the victims of abuse or neglect.

When individuals choose to neglect toxic or unhealthy connections, they create space for self-reflection, introspection, and redirection. This neglect can be a necessary step towards finding healthier and more fulfilling relationships or even discovering one's own strengths and passions. Furthermore, neglect can also be a driving force for change in society. Neglecting societal norms or biases can lead to questioning established systems and structures. By neglecting to ignore injustices or inequalities, individuals have the power to effect change and advocate for a more inclusive and fair society. Neglect can also have surprising positive consequences when it comes to personal well-being. Taking time to neglect external pressures and expectations allows individuals to reconnect with themselves, prioritize self-care, and engage in activities that bring them joy and fulfillment. Neglecting the constant need for productivity and busyness can lead to recharged energy and increased creativity. However, it is important to note that neglect is a delicate balance. While it can be a powerful force, excessive neglect can have detrimental effects on various aspects of life. It is important to find a middle ground where neglect is used as a tool for growth and exploration, but not at the expense of essential responsibilities and obligations. In conclusion, neglect is a multifaceted concept that holds both positive and negative potential. When harnessed correctly, neglect can be a source of magic, leading to unexpected outcomes, personal growth, and societal change. It is the ability to neglect certain limitations, conventions, or expectations that allows individuals and societies to push boundaries and unlock their full potential..
