| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This Canadian book chapter focuses on issues surrounding violence in separating and divorced families, particularly in cases where families are dealing with the Family Court rather than the more responsive the criminal court system. The authors discuss the philosophy of the Court and the trend towards shared custody and co-parenting as a major source of conflict. They consider the necessity to adequately protect victims and children from perpetrators of violence.<br/ ><br/ > * In extreme cases, spousal violence following separation is lethal<br/ >The authors explore issues surrounding the assessment of domestic violence allegations, which are frequently challenged aggressively by the abuser and met with scepticism by some court officials and even judges and counsellors. The authors provide a figurative and written description of a 'pyramid' of layers of assessment, which helps to collect all the relevant information and takes into account established indicators and risk factors.<br/ ><br/ >The authors suggest different options for interventions and parenting arrangements, according to the level of violence and risk established. They highlight issues that arise when attempting to put these theories into practice. The authors conclude with a discussion of the implications of policy change and current practices. | en |
