Physical Abuse

Physical abuse is any intentional, unwanted contact with you. This form of abuse is when someone hurts you and intends to cause injury or harm to your body. It can include any form of physical violence, such as:

  • Hitting
  • Punching
  • Shoving
  • Kicking
  • Slapping

It’s important to know that physical abuse is never okay and is not your fault. If you or someone you know is experiencing physical abuse, it’s crucial to seek help immediately. Talk to a trusted adult, teacher, counselor, or reach out to helplines or organizations that can provide support and assistance. Remember, everyone deserves to feel safe and protected.
