| dc.description.notes | Breastfeeding is the optimal nutrition for infants and requires the infant and mother to spend significant time together. In July 2006 the Australian Government introduced the Family Law Amendment (Shared Parental Responsibility) Act 2006 (Cth) (the Shared Parental Responsibility Act 2006) which puts in place a legal presumption of shared parental responsibility for children after separation and which emphasises 'equal time' parenting arrangements.<br/ ><br/ >The paper argues that the Shared Parental Responsibility Act 2006, and the decisions made, can work at a macro-level to produce social and health disparities for these children. Further questions are raised about the best interests of children when domestic violence and/or abuse are present. The impact of this new law on the continued breastfeeding of very young children is an unacknowledged consequence and a public health concern.<br/ ><br/ >[?2002-2009 eContent Management.
