N2  - The aggrievement of children is not only a present day problem. The term: child abuse has appeared in the literature from the mid-19th century. In this paper an attempt has been made to reference this phenomenon in region of Bydgoszcz. There were 2889 cases of children with bodily injuries requiring hospital treatment in the years 1992-1996. 10 cases were victims of long lasting violence in their homes. This paper also presented the basic regulations and pays attention to the requirement of greater engagement of the whole society. A restrictive system of child protection can contribute to a significant decrease in the scale of this phenomenon. Scandinvian countries can be used as an example of such an approach.
