Adults Who Have Been Abused as"Children: A Profile
Introduction
According to Tomlinson-Keasey (1985), child abuse is of such proportions that each day in this country, abusive parents are responsible for the deaths of two children. In addition, about 500,000 children are beaten, burned, thrown and generally battered without losing their lives; and these figures represent a low estimate because: (1) they do not include emotional and verbal abuse; and (2) not all cases of physical abuse are re-ported. Moreover, this estimate does not include cases of sexual abuse which Adams and Tucker (1982) estimate occurs to thousands more children."
