Research Journal of Educational Studies and Review, 1(4), 89-97.2449-1837https://nru.uncst.go.ug/handle/123456789/9302Every passing day, as cases of child abuse and neglect increase in number and forms meted on children in Uganda, family and community safety nets that used to act as a buffer for child protection also keep fading. The abuse is in part blamed on parents who are entering family life ill prepared to raise children while maintaining an exclusive life oblivious of a supportive community around them.
