THE Children’s Authority is urging parents to adopt more positive forms of discipline towards their children. As it recognises Child Abuse Awareness and Prevention month in April, it believes families must create safer communities for children.
In a press release on March 31, the authority’s CEO/director Sheldon Cyrus addressed the “concerning trend” of child neglect “which continues to dominate reports received by the authority.
“The neglect of children by those responsible for their care and protection often leads to other types of abuses being perpetrated.”
