Does Violence Breed Violence? Contributions from a Study of the Child Abuse Syndrome

Abstract

A study covering three generations of families of abused children supports the themes that violence breeds violence and that a child who experiences violence as a child has the potential of becoming a violent member of society in the future. The authors believe that the physician has a critical role and responsibility in interrupting this cycle of violence.
