Child Abuse
I don't beat the kid anu more but I still hate him.
You have to believe there are parents who injure their children and, having recognised such injuries, you must concentrate as much on the psychological climate of the home as on the injury itself. (DR CHRISTINE COOPER , ORE, consultant paediatrician)
How can a baby starve to death in a household visited regularly by concerned professionals? Is it difficult to distinguish between accidents and inflicted poisoning, burns and fractures? If a child isn't killed or maimed, what chance does he have of developing into an emotionally healthy adult? Peter France investigates the prevention and treatment of child neglect and abuse, and at 8.30 you can ring him in the studio to put your views and questions to a panel of experts. Producer LOUISE PURSLOW
