Abstract

The article discusses the consequences of neglect, physical violence, and sexual abuse on children. Neglect can cause severe disruptions in the normal development of children, to cognitive and emotional defects. Physical violence can have far-reaching negative consequences on children's emotional, psychological, cognitive, and physical development, including PTSD and delinquent behavior. Sexual abuse can cause fear, anger, hostility, depression, guilt, and shame in children. All three types of abuse can result in long-term and short-term major impacts on children's emotional and physical well-being. Future studies should focus on accurate analysis and specific treating methods to numerous kinds of situations faced by children after maltreatments.
