How can a teacher determine if a bump or bruise is a legitimate injury or an act of child abuse?

What will be an ideal response?


Several factors can be evaluated, including the child's age and the location, size, and shape of the injury. Children who are not yet walking are not likely to have bruises on their body; children who accidentally stumble will put out their hands to break the fall. In almost all cases, a child who is being abused will also exhibit behavioral changes.
