For the sake of further planning preventive actions in child-welfare, our data contextualize the idea of “families at risk for child abuse and neglect”. The aim of the study is to reveal the differences in the phenomenon of child maltreatment between urban and rural areas from Romania. The presented study is part of the BECAN project . Our findings show that children in urban areas are more vulnerable to emotional abuse, while those from rural areas to physical abuse. Other types of maltreatment such as sexual abuse and neglect do not differ significantly according to children’s residence. Statistically significant differences were also registered in the analysis of positive disciplines, in favor of parents from urban areas.

Keywords: child abuse and neglect, abusive mothers and fathers in rural and urban areas
