✦ Synopsis

The Impact of Working with Abused Children P revention is not just for children, it is also for carers and professionals working with traumatized youngsters. The nature of abuse can be shocking; exposure of abused children's emotional and unspoken inner world can be painful.

They may see potential abuse lurking everywhere and feel at risk of physical and professional attack from adults intent on discrediting them and the children. The needs of professionals and carers in such circumstances are often unrecognized. Most individuals who work with abused children are painfully familiar with heart-wrenching, gut-clenching feelings when confronting the appalling things that happen to these children, but what eect does this have on the very people who are supposed to be steady and reliable, to be for and alongside these unfortunate young people?

In general, there are three main issues.
