    Child Abuse Definition and Legal Issues in South Carolina

    In South Carolina, child abuse constitutes physical or mental harm done to a child. Examples of child abuse may include:

    • Corporal punishment
    • Sexual abuse

    Child neglect occurs when a child’s basic needs are ignored, such as in the case of someone not feeding a child meals. Neglect is often identified as a pattern of consistently failing to fill these needs, but you can be accused of child neglect stemming from a single incident, such as leaving your children in the car while you run into the grocery store. Child neglect has many different levels, and those accused of this crime often had no idea that their behavior could be considered criminal.

    Many times, child abuse and neglect issues stem from well-meaning mandated reporters who tell the state about a small bruise or a story a child tells that’s not representative of the facts. A good child abuse and neglect lawyer can determine the real facts of the case and present your side to the court. They will explore alternatives to the scenario presented by the state. A child’s bruises, for example, may have come from a playground accident and not a domestic dispute.
