Injuries to children may be temporary or permanent. They may require surgery, emergency room care, stitches or antibiotics. Often however, medical attention is withheld because the perpetrator fears prosecution for child abuse since it is a felony crime.
The unfortunate child is left to heal as best they can. The injured child may be forced to sit quietly in class, suffering in pain, yet expected to pay attention in school and not cause trouble for the adult offender.
