Child abuse is often not easy to notice outside because it often happens at home.



Reporter Lee Hyun-jung listened to an expert's talk about how to cope with the suspicion of abuse, but the child is okay, and if there is no injury to the body.



<Reporter> As



there are various forms of child abuse, different children have different signs of abuse.



It is important to recognize that neglect or psychological harassment is also abuse, even without violence.



When abuse is suspected, the child's development should be monitored if there are no visible scars.



[Shin Euijin/Severance Hospital Pediatric Psychiatry Professor: I saw the baby once and three months later, but the words didn't increase at all, or it was regressed or the expression was alive, but the expression disappeared, and it was a sad expression, or it could be suspicious.)]



Teachers who are in constant contact with the child may notice abuse with a little closer observation.



[Shin Eui-jin/Severance Hospital Pediatric Psychiatry Professor: When a child passes on a weekend and comes on a Monday, there are children who eat too much rice, and it’s frustrating.

On the other hand, a child who comes to the opposite side and does nothing by lying down completely without energy (you should be suspicious)] The



picture drawn by the child is an important clue.



This is a picture drawn by Won Young, who passed away in 2016, when he was abused by his parents.



[Shin Euijin/Severance Hospital Pediatric Psychiatry Professor: I mean, I drew a very scary picture of a mouse.

This is an aggressive picture, experts say.

(Wonyoung to her adoptive mother) It was a child who was beaten so many times for pissing.

So it seems that this is probably a dissociation phenomenon.

(If it was me) I think you might have asked what this is.

It seems that there will be a story about the person being killed while pissing on the blanket.] The



abusers often force their children to lie.



So, even if your child says "it's okay," if you have any doubts, you should pay close attention.



When making a report, experts advise that the collected evidence or testimony should be communicated in detail to the relevant authorities, and that the perpetrator should not disclose the report as much as it can hide the evidence.
