Notes:	General Overview: This Australian article outlines some ways in which family members can participate in the treatment of young men who sexually abuse. Discussion: This short article considers how the family of a young man who has sexually abused can be involved in his treatment. Aspects of family life may contribute to abusive behaviour and parents can be asked to make changes in the home environment. Family members can help identify contributing factors to sexual abuse and work to minimise those factors. They can challenge dominant cultural messages about masculinity and sexuality. They can provide supervision, particularly around younger children, and remove access to pornography. The author also outlines some circumstances in which it will not be helpful for family members to be involved in treatment.
