Child abuse.
Child abuse is an emotional topic, and one which features frequently in newspapers. Newspapers, however, tend to report only the most serious cases and those which have been the subject of court hearings. The reporting tends to concentrate on lurid details. In fact, there is a wide spectrum of child abuse encompassing physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse and neglect, and ranging in severity from the most minor incident through to injuries sufficient to cause death.
