| Notes: | This short commentary analyses the challenging position of women whose children tell them they have been sexually abused by their father. The authors briefly examine the role of the family law system as a private legal avenue for mothers to seek protection for their children, notably through child protection orders. The authors also outline the civil standard of proof required to test evidence of child sexual abuse. |
