Direct and Indirect child abuse - Silkysteps early years forum

I'm on my last question for 305 and it asks for social factors causing child abuse (i'm ok with that) but then it asks for the behaviour of adults directly involved in abuse and the behaviour of adults indirectly involved in abuse. I would be grateful if someone would help. Thank you.

Just noticed no-one has replied to my question, I've tried to answer this myself by saying how direct abuse is by the person who actually causing the child harm and indirect is when people know something is going on but choose to remain quiet - am I on theright track????

Start thinking wider afield too... such as parents with drug/drink problems, can you recognise the signs? how do they cover their behaviours and how does this affect the child.

Hi muslimh97,
I have to say reading back what I wrote -I have managed to sound a bit judgmental!! ....
it should be worded more like ........ 'how might they' rather than 'how do they'
