ABSTRACT
This research investigated the causes and effects of child abuse in Kaduna State and how social studies education will be used to minimize it. To achieve this, three objectives, research questions and hypotheses each were formulated for the study. Survey method of research design was adopted for the study. A total of 293 respondents were involved in the study as sample among lecturers and students. The data for the study was collected using a questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.75. The independent sample t-test of 95% confident interval i.e an alpha level of 0.05 was used to either accept or reject the hypotheses formulated. The null hypotheses were all accepted. The findings of the study revealed that: Ignorance, poverty, broken home, large family size and early marriage are the major cause to child abuse. Based on these findings the following recommendations were proffered: Spouses should be sincere and tolerant to one another so as to avoid separation; Parents should engage themselves in income generating ventures so as to reduce the rate of poverty; Parents should reduce the level of domestic activities/work on their children, and instead encourage them on academic pursuit; and government should increase funding on social research to help fight social vices in our society
