Essential reading for any parent who wants to protect their child's soul, or for anyone who has suffered from physical or psychological abuse. The author begins by outlining the categories of child abuse, before going on to provide a comprehensive yet succinctly written overview of the effects, consequences and rehabilitation techniques. Problem solving mechanisms from both preventative and post-abuse perspectives are provided using secular terminology with Biblical perspectives. In this way the author presents practical applications which give hope to parents and victims - and a stern warning to perpetrators.
