Two in five children (41%) have experienced verbal abuse from the adults around them, according to a new survey by the charity Words Matter.
Verbal abuse has the potential to damage a child for a lifetime. It can affect their self-esteem and confidence, their future potential, and ability to function at home, school, the workplace and in social situations. It has also been linked to poor mental health and can even change the normal workings of the brain.
