With some injuries, it s hard to tell whether they are a result of too much roughhousing or abusive treatment. Follow this guideline to assess a child s bruising. Most accidental bruises are in common locations knees, elbows, and foreheads. In contrast, bruises on a child s neck or back could indicate potential mistreatment or abuse. Although kids should be allowed to explore and learn their limits, suspicious bruises are warning signs that should not be ignored.

Esté consciente de la diferencia entre moretones accidentales y sospechosos. Muchos niños juegan pesado, y como resultado pueden sufrir moretones o heridas. Con algunas heridas, es difícil decir si son el resultado de un comportamiento escandaloso o de un tratamiento abusivo. Siga esta guía para evaluar los moretones de un niño. La mayoría de los moretones accidentales suceden en lugares comunes del cuerpo, como rodillas, codos y frente. En contraste, los moretones en el cuello o espalda del niño podrían indicar potencial maltrato o abuso. Aunque a los niños se les debe permitir explorar y aprender sus límites, los moretones sospechosos son una señal de que estos no deben ser ignorados.
