Boys are often more at risk than girls for child abuse and burn victimization due to societal norms that can foster aggression and risk-taking behaviors in males. Additionally, boys may be less likely to report abuse due to stigma and societal expectations around masculinity. Furthermore, caregivers may sometimes misinterpret boys' behaviors as more resilient or less vulnerable, leading to a lack of intervention or support. These factors contribute to the higher incidence of abuse and associated injuries among boys.
