Abstract
Physical child abuse has been practiced since the early days of humanity, but it is only in the
past twenty years that it has been recognized that hitting or physically maltreating a child is actually
abusing them. This article reviews the prevalence, symptoms, types and causes of child physical
abuse, ending with examining what are the ramifications of such abuse.
