Parents who abuse children need help


A report in The Star last year.

CHILD abuse is universally abhorred, and whenever news of child abuse appears in local newspapers and social media, the incidents are loudly and roundly condemned.

Yet, reports still crop up, with the most recent being the shocking find of a two-year-old boy who was left to die in a box by the roadside in Ampang Baru.
