From NSPCC research it shows that a significant minority of children suffer serious abuse or neglect. Their 2000 study of the childhood experiences of 2,869 18-24 year olds found that:
Six per cent of children experienced frequent and severe emotional maltreatment during childhood.
Six per cent of children experienced serious absence of care at home during childhood.
31 per cent of children experienced bullying by their peers during childhood, a further seven per cent were discriminated against and 14 per cent were made to feel different or 'like an outsider'. 43 per cent experienced at least one of these things during childhood.
72 per cent of sexually abused children did not tell anyone about the abuse at the time. 27 per cent told someone later. Around 31 per cent still had not told anyone about their experience(s) by early adulthood. 25 per cent of children experienced one or more forms of physical violence during childhood. This includes being hit with an implement, being hit with a fist or kicked, shaken, thrown or knocked down, beaten up, choked, burned or scalded on purpose, or threatened with a knife or gun. Of this 25 per cent of children, the majority had experienced 'some degree of physical abuse' by parents or carers.
Almost two thirds of children killed at the hands of another person in England and Wales are aged under five.

To conclude, I find this such a BAD subject, do not care what degree it is begining or end, this is the worst kind of a "being bad" subject. This kind of topic I can not even talk about without difficulty.
The Thing is with Child abuse, you are hurting children at the age of what they do not understand, these kids are supposed to be the future, harming them this will not be achieved. Almost two thirds of children killed in another persons hands were under 5. This is disgusting and inappropriate, why would someone have the mind set to do this. I am not even sorry to say that I am totally against child abuse.
This video has shown a summary of how a child feels and also what child abuse can lead too...
