Child Abuse
Physical abuse, emotional abuse and sexual abuse are three types of abuse. Physical abuse is when the child is involved in a non-accidental injury. Emotional abuse is when the parent always puts blame on the child or the child is rejected. Sexual abuse is when the child is used as part of any sexual act.
Neglect
Emotional neglect and physical neglect are two different types of neglect. Emotional neglect is when the child is not feeling loved, wanted, secure or worthy by the parent. Physical neglect is not having enough food or clothing, not getting medical attention, not keeping the child safe, not having heat in the winter or not providing basic needs or a safe place to live.
