That is normally an infraction called neglect. If there was no intent it is not a crime and would not fall under criminal justice but family law. It could be a warning, fine...this behavior normally results in the Chile being placed in foster care and the parent being required to pay restitution to the state and complete programs and classes if they want their child returned to them.

Repeat offenses or neglect as a result of criminal behavior will result in jail time. Normally enough repeat offenses of neglect will simply result in permanent loss of custody...a fate far worse than jail for most parents.

ANY type of physical child abuse is not dealt with leniently, it is highly likely that you would receive and serve very close to a full sentence.

NOTE; Child abusers are NOT thought very fondly of by their fellow inmates.
