"Child Sexual Abuse in Paradise"- A Two Part Series on The DrRose Show

                                                      Child Abuse and   Neglect

Cases of child abuse and neglect are far too common within our communities. On average, more than five children die each day as a result of child abuse or neglectin the United States. There are over 6.2 million reports made of child abuse and neglect each year. Over 15 million children witness violence in their homes each year.

While precise legal definitions vary across the United States, child abuse can broadly be defined as an act—or failure to act—that results in a child's serious harm or risk of harm, including physical or emotional harm, exploitation or death. Neglect occurs when a caretaker fails to provide for a child's basic needs.

Children are the some of the most vulnerable members of our society, mainly because of their dependence on others to get their needs met. And sadly, in the majority of cases, the adults that children depend on are the ones responsible for abusing them.
