What is
neglect
Neglect is the ongoing failure
to meet a child's basic needs
and the most common form
of child abuse. A child might
be left hungry or dirty, or
without proper clothing,
shelter, supervision or health
care. This can put children
and young people in danger.
And it can also have long
term effects on their physical
and mental wellbeing.
Neglect can be really difficult to
spot. Having one of the signs
doesn't necessarily mean a child is
being neglected. But if you notice
multiple signs that last for a while,
they might show there's a serious
problem. Children and young
people who are neglected might
have.

Good Parenting
.Good parents help their kids in school, they pay
attention and respond to a child's needs.

.Parents who practice positive parenting don't use


harsh punishment to correct problematic behavior.
Instead, they proactively fulfill their kids' emotional
needs through positive interactions, which can prevent
a great deal of bad behavior from happening in the first
place.
Bad Parenting
• There are many types of bad parenting we
can find parents who they yell and hit their
kids all the time for small things and most of
the time they are very severe and harsh.
They control their kids’ life by choosing their
future.
• Also addicted parents are bad in parenting
most of the time They don’t care about their
kids they just yell and hit them for no reason.
Effects of bad
parenting on • Children without positive parenting are
more at risk for their own relationship
troubles, depression, anxiety, and
children aggression, among other negative
outcomes.
• The below effects are the result of ongoing
patterns of negative behavior. That time
you yelled at your toddler for breaking
your favorite coffee mug is not the same
as a consistent pattern of criticism or
physical violence.
• Children who experience overly rigid
or strict discipline can have issues with
control of others, obsessive compulsive
disorder, and other anxious behaviors,
together with the mindset that the world is
dangerous, according to Frederick
Exceptions
• Successful and famous people
aren’t always the results of good
parenting sometimes kids who
experienced bad parenting can
have a good future with many
successes like Eminem he grow
up without a father and he rapped
about his mom saying she was
addicted to drugs and didn’t raise
him well
• We can find actors who had bad
childhood like Tyler Perry he is
American actor. Perry had a
difficult childhood. He grew up with
a physically abusive father. He
attempted suicide and dropped
out of high school. With all the
pain he went through he become
a good actor and successful
