A study by researchers at Australia’s Curtin University found that one in four children in Australia had experienced physical abuse within the family before the age of ten. Family members were responsible for 85% of reported cases, compared with 4% in institutions and 5% both at home and in institutions. In about a third of cases of abuse before age ten, the parents were responsible; abuse by both parents was associated with abuse beginning at an earlier age and continuing for longer. The researchers warned of the effects of abuse on mental health and social relationships, and of its association with increased risks of suicide, violence, bullying, and drug and alcohol use. They called for stronger prevention efforts and greater awareness within families.
