Are we neglecting neglect? With all the attention in recent years on the physical and sexual abuse of children, those who are suffering from straightforward neglect may be having their needs overlooked.
A recent report looks at the very young in care in Northern Ireland. It illustrates the desperate straits of such children, citing the case of a four year old who tried to cut her wrists.
