description The subject of this empirical research is to see to what extent violence against children with disabilities is present in our society, in which families abuse and neglect occur, specifically in the city of Belgrade. The aim of the research was to determine whether and to what extent there are certain (and which) forms of abuse and / or neglect of children and youth with disabilities and what are the dominant factors for the development and maintenance of this situation, while the task was to to determine whether the degree of abuse and / or neglect of children and youth with disabilities in the city of Belgrade depends on certain socio-demographic factors. The sample consisted of 80 respondents, students of primary and secondary school "Novi Beograd"in Belgrade. The target group was students aged 10 to 21 who were found to have a factor which contributes to the vulnerability and marginalization of this group of children and young people in relation to children and young people of normal development. The analysis of the results showed that, out of the total number of respondents, 25% of them estimated that their living conditions were poor, while 16.2% of them answered that (sometimes) they did not have enough food. 10% of them estimated that there were no satisfactory hygienic conditions. By analyzing the questions on a certain group of questions, significant data were obtained that support the research questions that children with disabilities, who come from socially deprived families with many members and live in suburbs, are more exposed to the possibility of suffering. abuse and / or neglect.
