According to various studies carried out by the World Health Organization, it is noted that 3 out of 4 boys and girls between two and four years old regularly suffer psychological violence or physical punishment that comes from their parents or, in turn, of their caregivers, that is, any other outside figure who is dedicated to their upbringing. In this way, child abuse is considered one of the major global problems together with child chronic malnutrition and child labor, which affect this population, so it is valid that certain signs are identified to provide help to minors who They are being victims of child abuse.
A professional said it. Erika Calderón, a clinical psychologist, stated: “victims of child abuse are understood as all types of physical, psychological, sexual aggression… it really encompasses all types of abuse that cause harm in the different spheres of development of minors.” Likewise, this problem is not only attached to a single cause, but it is multifactorial, that is, we find the issue of the health of fathers and mothers finding some type of disability or mental illness that becomes a cause of abuse, but also The parenting style or story received by the parents greatly influences it. On the other hand, there is also the socioeconomic level, which badly leads to venting emotions against the little ones.
Namely. It must be taken into account that abuse has two ways of manifesting itself, and they are: active abuse, which is also known as abuse, and that includes physical, sexual and emotional abuse, while in passive abuse we find physical and emotional. Despite being different, both have great consequences on the behavior and behavior of boys and girls, said the professional. Childhood and adolescence is the starting point for every human being, and their future will depend on how they are treated, since it can trigger conflicts, Calderón noted.
