"What I would do if I saw a child being verbally abuse"

If I saw a mother being verbally abusive to her three-year old, I would offer some help in the from of counseling for both her and the child. I would offer, to accompany them to the counseling seesion. If the mother declined my offer I would attempt a different approach.My approach would be to become friends with her to see if I could be of any help to her. If she it willing to open up to me and tell her about her childhood, that might give some insight on some possible causes of the abuse.After she is done telling me about her childhood, I would then offer my thoughts on what might be cauing her to be absive towards her child.Then I would like to get some more insight on how the child about being verbrally abused and I would try to find out what the three-year old child believes the reason for the morther being abusive is. I would let her know that if the abuse continues it would result in her child acting out and seeing if he or she receives the love and affection that is not being given or the child may feel hate towards her as the years coontines. I would also advise the monther to find her child a postive role modle ouside the family. I would ask the mother to please keep me updated on the situation.
