child abuse:
"general term used to describe behavior on the part of a parent
or guardian that results in significant negative emotional or physical
consequences for a child. However, there is no consensus in Canadian
society about what constitutes abusive behavior or significant negative
consequences. Abuse of children can take several different forms:
physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse or neglect" (Office
for the Prevention of Family Violence, Alberta Social Services,
1994).
child abuse:
"the Ontario- Child and Family Services Act RSO 1990, Section
37, has a legal definition of child abuse: to suffer abuse, when

within the meaning of the Child and Family Service Act (Children's
Aid Society of Metropolitan Toronto, 1995).
child abuse (physical):
"in New York State the legal definition of a physically abused
child is: a child who is less than 18 years of age whose parent(s)
or other person(s) legally responsible for his/her care either:

by other than accidental means which causes or creates a substantial
risk of death or serious or protracted disfigurement, or protracted
impairment or the child's physical health, or protracted loss or
impairment of the function of any bodily organ - or - creates or
allows to be created a substantial risk of physical injury to such

bodily organ. http://www.pasa.org/resources/ica_physical.html

is responsible for the child's welfare, under circumstances which
indicate that the child's health or welfare is harmed or threatened
thereby (Flowers, 2000)." The Child Abuse Amendments of 1984
(Public Law 98-457) expanded the definition to include "the
withholding of medical treatment to an infant with a life threatening
health condition or complication."

Services, 1998, p. 19).
child
neglect:
"the negligent
treatment or maltreatment of a child by a parent or caretaker under
circumstances indicating harm or threatened harm to the child's
health or welfare." The important point is that it is an act
of omission on part of the parent or caretaker whereas abuse is
an act of commission. The dilemma that sometimes accompanies neglect
is that it is difficult to determine where acceptable parenting
stops and neglect begins (Wallace, 1999).
child sexual
abuse:
"The Child Abuse and Treatment Act further defines child sexual
abuse as (a) the employment, use, persuasion, inducement, enticement,
or coercion of any child to engage in, or assist any other person
to engage in, any sexually explicit conduct or simulation of such
conduct for the purpose of producing any visual depiction of such
conduct, or (b) the rape, molestation, prostitution, or other form
of sexual exploitation of children, or incest with children."
(Flowers, 1999).

& King, 1990, p55).
child prostitution:
United Nations
Commission on Human Rights Thematic Report defined child prostitution
as "the act of engaging or offering the services of a child
to perform sexual acts for money or other consideration with that
person or any other person". Under this definition, child prostitution

"engaging or offering the services of a child"; this definition
intends to lessen confusion concerning other forms of child exploitation
and abuse
