dc.description.notesPresents and discusses the methodology and findings of an evaluation of a group intervention programme in Victoria for mothers of adolescents who are violent and/or abusive towards their parent/s and who refuse counselling, exploring some of the major issues raised by the study. A definition of and background to adolescent violence towards parents is provided and some of the explanations for this behaviour outlined by researchers and practitioners. A selection of intervention strategies, primarily clinically based, is described and the scarcity of approaches utilising groupwork as a treatment option is highlighted. The evaluation revealed a significant reduction in self-reported levels of violence in participants’ homes and greater understanding amongst participants of the various forms of violence and the ways in which they might be responded to. Improvements in the ability of participants to empathise with their children and changes in women’s concept of ‘good mothering’ were also identified. Argues that the findings of the study demonstrate the capacity for change in the most traumatic family circumstances and advocates for further research, intervention and evaluation in this complex area.en
