Abstract
Child abuse is a common and worrying problem that affects many children in South Sudan. This paper highlights a variety of forms of child abuse, such as physical abuse, neglect, sexual offence, emotional damage, slapping, shaking, throwing, kicking, biting and burning. The paper discusses the risk factors and people who are involved in child abuse, as well as the position of early detection and intervention. Furthermore, it examines the long-term consequences of child abuse, such as physical, mental and health issues, weakened social relationships, and increased likelihood of engaging in risky behaviors. Again, the paper stresses the need for multi-dimensional interventions, which include legal measures, public awareness campaigns, and support services, to fight child abuse and protect the rights and safety of children. Any national damage or mistreatment to a child under 18 years old is considered child abuse.
