dc.description.notesThis article examines the complexity of family violence for nurses negotiating between the prime concern for the safety of children and contributing to maternal alienation in New Zealand, within the context of the co-occurrence of maternal and child abuse. It looks at how mothers are alienated from their children when child abuse is suspected or confirmed, and how an abusive partner often initiates the process of maternal alienation from children as a control device. It cites evidence that shows when mothers are supported with resources, there is a reduction in the violence and abuse experienced by the mothers and children, even in situations where the mother is the primary abuser of her children. It discusses how the family-centred care philosophy, seen as the best approach to nursing care for children and their families, creates a tension for nurses caring for children who are victims of abuse as this care takes place away from the context of family. It suggests that this fragmented approach to caring for abused children can undermine the mother-child relationship and contribute to maternal alienation.en
