It is a serious public health problem. abuse and neglect costs $80 million dollars a year. It is difficult to decide who is responsible for the abuse to the child. The child suffers more than anyone will believe they do, whether its health or physical abuse, not one child should suffer like that. A child is not built to their strong human form until they are about 10 years old. Anyone then that, should really be watched because their bodies are fragile and they cannot take a lot of pain. Then there are the health issues. Just because the parent does not physically hurt the child, there can still be abuse. The child could not be fed the right amount of food and they could die from hunger. They could also die from an illness caused by poor nutrition as they get older. Child abuse is a problem that needs to be solved because children are suffering, and it has long lasting effects whether it's mental or physical abuse.
