Child abuse was first defined by a forensic science professor Auguste Ambroise Tardieu as “an adult intention an act within a certain time to a child that is not agreed within the related culture”. Child abuse is broadly defined as any type of brutality imposes upon a child, including mental abuse, physical harm, and sexual abuse or mistreatment. The World Health Organization categories child abuse into four types. These are sexual abuse, emotional or psychological abuse, physical abuse.

Child abuse can also in the form of child neglect, when an able caregiver fail to afford basic needs, sufficient food, clothing, hygiene, management shelter, supervision, medical care, or any support to the child. Today, economic abuse has been added to this classification.Abuse On All Aspects Of A Child’s Life
