N2  - <p>This article examines the professional response to child sexual abuse by posing three questions: Are there problems with current practice and research? What maintains current professional behavior? Can individual professionals improve children's welfare? Numerous professional practices that may harm children are documented. Analysis of the contingencies that shape professional behavior suggests that it will be difficult to change current practices. Several ways in which individual professionals can promote children's welfare in allegations of sexual abuse are highlighted.</p><p />
