Abstract
Recently, child abuse cases such as the "16-month death of adopted children" have occurred one after another in our society and have emerged as a serious social problem. Child abuse not only significantly violates children's human rights, but also leaves scars on the child's body and sometimes threatens their lives. As a result, laws related to child abuse have been revised several times and related systems have been reorganized to protect the affected children safely and grow healthy, but child abuse cases continue to occur. Therefore, it is urgent to come up with effective measures to prevent child abuse crimes and protect affected children. Therefore, this study examines the concept and related laws of child abuse, the current status of child abuse, and suggests countermeasures to effectively respond to child abuse compared to the US child abuse legislation and child protection system.
