Youth’s Resilience
Neglect has a complex psychological influence on kids, influencing many facets of their growth and welfare.
A striking illustration of perseverance in the face of hardship is provided by the tale of the young Nersac boy who, in spite of extreme neglect, was able to continue attending school and maintaining his appearance.
Neglect can cause long-term cognitive, emotional, and social problems by interfering with the brain’s natural development, especially in early childhood.
A variety of developmental disabilities linked to chronic neglect are frequently more widespread than those brought on by physical abuse.
