  • An individual who is a child abuser either sexually or verbally has generally been brought up in an environment of the same and it becomes a chain reaction. Many individuals who are child abusers have been either sexually or verbally been abused themselves when they were a child. Physical abuse (not sexual abuse) or verbal abuse can be brought on by problems in the marriage and finances are high on the list of pressure for a parent or parents that physically abuse their child or children. Job loss; a parent or parents who are alcoholics; use street drugs or being poor and underprivileged can attribute to child physical or verbal abuse. However, the wealthy can also be abusive with their children because of their own genetic background.
  • Child factors

    Certain children are more vulnerable to abusive behaviour. The child's age and physical, mental, emotional and social development can greatly increase or decrease the likelihood of abuse.

Gil's theory was based on his research in the 1970's, that child abuse was related to social class and that psychological explanations of abuse on their own were too narrow based as it underestimated the stress from society through poverty etc. Gil's theory also mentions that the state is also to blame through policy making making such inequalities. hope this helps a little.
