A WOMAN has been charged with child abuse after she claimed she was too poor to look after her kids - but still bought a Harley-Davidson motorbike.

Alexis Dahl is charged with multiple counts of child abuse and neglect against seven children.

A criminal complaint alleges a pattern of abuse and neglect by the 26-year-old over the past four years in Waupaca, Wisconsin.

It is claimed seven children under the age of seven, several under the age of four, were victims, reports WSAU.

Doctors are said to have found injuries consistent with burns from scalding water.

One child is also alleged to have suffered a dog bite to the face.

The home also has an infestation of bed bugs, but Dahl allegedly told authorities she didn't not have the money to fix it.

However, it emerged Dahl and a man living at the residence had spent their tax refund on Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

Medics claim they also found bruises and scratches on the children, along with multiple bed bug bites.

And another of the children is alleged to have ingested insecticide.

Wisconsin authorities say ever year up to 5,000 children are abused or neglected in the state.

Child neglect can be considered a Class G felony punishable by up to ten years in prison and a fine of $10,000.

Other charges relating to child abuse can carry prison terms of up to 40 years and fines on $100,000.
