Notes:	Historically, the chasm between services for women and services for children has been problematised in the domestic and family violence arena. However, this paper argues that it is now equally, or more problematic, that the recognition of harm to children in the context of domestic and family violence has 'grafted' statutory child protection response to intervention in this area. This paper argues that when judged against the criteria for a functional system, one which is effective, efficient, efficacious or ethical then there are a number of areas in which the child protection system fails in relation to children living with domestic violence. * Undermining the voluntary and empowerment model of intervention for women through compulsory, statutory intervention with children Abstract reprinted with permission eContent Management ? 2008 for further information visit Journal of family studies.
