Legal Terms - child who is physically abused
a child who is intentionally harmed physically by a parent, stepparent, or any live person in any way, such as by beating, kicking, shaking, burning, etc. If the other parent (or caregiver) files for a *non-molestation order under the Family Law Act of 1996, the kid may be protected—but only if the child resides with the applicant or may reasonably be expected to do so. With the court's approval, a minor may also request a non-molestation order. Under the Children Act 1989, a local authority may apply for a *supervision order, *care order, or *emergency protection order where a child is experiencing, or is likely to experience, serious damage. These orders are also applicable for children experiencing non-physical types of abuse (such as emotional or psychological abuse) where the *threshold criteria are met.
