dc.description.notes | General Overview: This retired US judge rejects the excuses and justifications of domestic violence perpetrators, and argues that they should be denied contact with their children.</i><br/ >Discussion: The author is a former justice of the New York Supreme Court. She notes that judges base their orders on the recommendations of mental health professionals, court appointed advocates and mediators, described as “evaluators”. She calls on evaluators to reject family systems theory and the excuses and justifications of domestic violence perpetrators. She calls on judges to reject their evidence as inadmissible where evaluators fail to hold perpetrators responsible for their behaviours. She calls for mediators to terminate negotiations between separated parties when a history of domestic violence comes to light. She emphasizes the criminality of intimate partner violence and argues that when a parent poses a risk of harm to custodial parents or the children, then all contact by the abusive parent should be denied. | en |
