Child abuse is a serious issue that affects many children around the world, including in the UK.

It is a
form of maltreatment that can have long-lasting and devastating effects on a child's physical and
emotional well-being. In the UK, there have been numerous cases of child abuse that have shocked
and saddened the nation.

One such case is that of Baby P, a 17-month-old boy who died in 2007 after suffering extensive
abuse at the hands of his mother, her boyfriend, and their lodger. Despite being seen by health and
social workers on multiple occasions, Baby P's injuries and signs of abuse were missed, leading to his
tragic death.

Another well-known case is that of Victoria Climbié, an 8-year-old girl who died in 2000 after being
subjected to months of abuse and neglect by her guardians. Her case exposed major failures in the
child protection system and led to significant changes in child welfare policies in the UK.

These are just two of the many heart-wrenching cases of child abuse in the UK. Each case is a
reminder of the urgent need for society to protect and support our most vulnerable children.

simultaneously or consecutively is high. For example, emotional and psychological abuse are more

examined intra-familial filicides, 23 (12%) were caused by child battering and 13 (7%) by
continuous battering. The medical and court records of the victim and the perpetrator were
examined. The perpetrator was the biological mother and the victim was male in 69 per cent of the
cases. The abused children were either younger than one year or from two-and-a-half to four years
old. Risk factors of the victim (being unwanted, premature birth, separation from the parent caused
by hospitalization or custodial care, being ill and crying a lot) and the perpetrator (personality
disorder, low socioeconomic status, chaotic family conditions, domestic violence, isolation, alcohol
abuse) were common. The injuries caused by previous battering were mostly soft tissue injuries in
head and limbs and head traumas and the battering lasted for days or even an year. The final assault

child. The perpetrating parent was diagnosed as having a personality disorder (borderline, narcissistic
