Make It Your Business… When you witness child abuse (Video 2)

In this video about child abuse, we will witness a situation that may be familiar to some people: a parent losing patience with and threatening a child in public.

Child abuse is a form of family violence. Like other kinds of abuse, child abuse can be physical, emotional, sexual, psychological, spiritual, and verbal. It can also be neglect, threats, or other forms of mistreatment.

Anyone who has cared for young children knows it can be challenging. It’s normal for caregivers to feel frustrated, but it’s never okay to threaten or harm a child. While you watch the video, consider what you could safely do if you witness child abuse at work or in public.
