| dc.description.notes | Reports the findings from research described in “Unacceptable risk: A report on Child Contact Arrangements where there is violence in the family” conducted for the Women’s Legal Centre Inc., Queensland, Abuse Free Contact Group. The research was conducted over a twelve month period from January 1999, incorporating a literature review, interviews with staff in key agencies and surveys with practitioners and women whose children experienced abuse on contact visits. Violence prior to separation was often severe and directly targeted towards the children. Violence and abuse continued after separation but was more likely to manifest itself in ongoing harassment, verbal abuse and denigration (particularly at handover times) and abuse through litigation. Highlights difficulties for women with concerns for their children’s safety who are forced to comply with Family Court Orders. Issues were raised by the researchers about the failure of the system to protect children from further abuse and the absence of anyone to protect children on contact. Women reported that their concerns about the safety of their children on contact were ignored and their prior history of domestic violence did not feature as a factor in court reports or affect the type of decision making process. | en |
