dc.description.notesThis paper critically discusses the available research on parental abuse. It is argued that there is a lack of information on incidents of child-to-parent violence, presumably because parents are ashamed of revealing it. Local and international (Canada, France, Japan, USA) studies reveal that single parents and mothers endure more violence than parents in a relationship and fathers. Even though adolescents of both genders are equally identified as perpetrators, girls are more likely to use emotional violence while boys favour physical aggression. Explanations behind parental abuse are addressed from the perspective of risk factors and family context. The findings on the links between parental and other types of violence, and the wider social influences are discussed. The author also examines some of the different theories developed to explain adolescent violence towards parents and the interventions designed to address it.en
