Answer by Suger smack
It means being mean or cruel to a child.
It happens for many reasons and some abuse is not as bad as others (although it’s all bad.)
I think the main reason it happens is people are immature and overwhelmed. I think the second biggest reason is some parents might be on drugs. It can happen to any child and from anyone but mostly caregivers like parents or babysitters, nannies and grandparents.

Child abuse means to me, neglect, physical harm, emotional scarring, sexual molestation.
Not clothing/ feeding is neglect. Physical harm, anything more then a quick little tap on the bum. anything the involves a closed hand, leaves bruises, causes bleeding, or even worse broken bones 🙁
Emotional scarring, is anything with words, “your fat” “your useless” “your ugly” “good for nothing” some examples.
Well i dont need to explain sexual molestation.
WHY? hmmm, i dont know because i wont ever abuse my child. but probably cuz of some substance abuse in the parents. Drugs, alcohol being the main culprits.
Or addiction, drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, internet addictions.
Lack of emotions, inability to care for another human being, selfishness.
feelings of inadequacy, loneliness, overwhelmed, post natal depression,
Mental illness
I dont really know what else to say.
it hasnt happened to me.
