A Job We Never Like: Child Abuse Investigations

There are four major types of child abuse and these are: emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse and neglect.

Unfortunately, child abuse cases are not rare. They can take place anywhere. Children are getting mistreated at an alarming rate and the abusers can be strangers, teachers, babysitters, other children and even family members. If child abuse was once viewed as a minor social problem, nowadays it receives close attention from the law enforcement. The public awareness has increased and the reported child abuse cases as well. Yet, there are many hidden child abuse cases out there, because the victims are either too young or too fearful to speak.

A private detective cannot help you in an emotional abuse or neglect case, but could use different investigation techniques to prove, physical abuse or sexual abuse.

Emotional Abuse and Neglect - "Emotional abuse refers to the habitual verbal harassment of a child by disparagement, criticism, threat and ridicule and the inversion of love; whereby verbal and non-verbal means of rejection and withdrawal are substituted." Emotional abuse is often related with neglect. Children seldom express in words their feelings of emotional abuse and neglect. Such forms of abuse are difficult to prove. As private detectives we cannot promise results in such cases, we recommend you seek help from experienced child psychologists.

Physical Abuse - is defined as non-accidental physical injury as a result of caretaker acts. There are many different forms of physical abuse. When you notice one of the following signs on a child, this may be a sign of physical abuse: suspicious bruises, fractures, swollen joints, unusual burns, bites, poisoning and much more. It is not easy to collect proofs for a physical child abuse case, unless the abuser repeats his or her acts.
