Question: You are triaging an 11 year old boy (accompanied by his mother) who has a suspected fractured wrist. During the consultation you notice what you believe to be cigarette burns on the boy's arm and a number of bruises on his legs. The boy is inadequately dressed for the current cold weather. When you ask the boy how he hurt his wrist, his mother interrupts and says he fell over. The boy appears visibly afraid of his mother.
