Child neglect is a form of child abuse, and is a deficit in meeting a child's basic needs, including the failure to provide adequate health care, supervision, clothing, nutrition, housing as well as their physical, emotional, social, educational and safety needs. Child abuse is physical, sexual, or psychological maltreatment or neglect of a child or children, especially by a parent or other caregiver. Hope this Helps!
