Video Summary of Abuse, mistreatment, and neglect
Abuse is any action or behavior that hurts or harms another person. A mistreatment is a form of abuse in which the abuser does not use physical violence, but instead utilizes emotional, financial, or sexual coercion to control the victim. Neglect is a type of mistreatment in which the caregiver does not provide for the basic needs of the child, such as food, water, shelter, clothing, and medical care.
