Virginia Code § 18.2-371.1 addresses child abuse and neglect, making it illegal for any parent, guardian, or caretaker to willfully cause or allow serious injury to a child’s life, health, or development. This includes physical harm, malnutrition, or endangering the child’s safety. Violations are treated as felonies, with penalties varying based on the severity of the harm. https://bit.ly/3PpIZyy
