Child abuse is mischief to, or neglect of, a child by an additional person, whether adult or child. Child abuse happens in all cultural, national, and income groups. There are four main types of abuse: neglect, physical abuse, emotional abuse and sexual abuse. Ill-treatment may cause serious injury to the child and may even result in death, there is very little research done in this area in India. Increasing amount of studies are focusing on lookout events, slight inflicted injuries noticed by a physician and/or parent(s) that initially are not considered a form of child maltreatment, but eventually, with continued abuse, are diagnosed as child abuse. Intervention in child ill-treatment include the search of child abuse reports by state child protection agencies, clinical treatment of physical and mental injuries, family counseling, self-help services, the provision of goods and services such as homemaker or respite care, legal action against the person responsible for, and removal of the child or the crook from the home, and in this how society can help abusive child and its family?
