Maybe, it depends upon the type and extent of the neglect. For example, what physical harm if any has been done to the child as related to... adequate food, housing, clothing, education, health care etc.

Child neglect can be a low classed misdemeanor and/or felony, a high class misdemeanor and/or felony.
