Profiles
The abuse
The abuse or mistreatment of a child consists of all forms of physical, emotional or sexual abuse, neglect or negligent treatment, or forms of exploitation, including commercial, resulting in actual or potential harm to child’s health, survival, development or dignity in the context of a relationship of responsibility, trust or power. It can intervene both in the child’s family universe and in his wider social circle.
