dc.description.notes"There has been increasing recognition that children are harmed by witnessing assaults or<br/ >abuse that their mothers experience as victims of intimate partner violence (IPV). At the<br/ >same time, an expectation that mothers can and will protect their children from harm is<br/ >widespread. This paper discusses how mothers' understandings of protecting their children<br/ >are intertwined with the complexities of IPV in the context of legal interventions. We draw<br/ >on accounts by mothers and advocates who participated in two qualitative studies<br/ >evaluating of the kinds of services provided for them after criminal justice interventions<br/ >brought their partners before a specialist family violence court in Aotearoa/New Zealand.<br/ >Although we did not specifically ask about protection of children, crucial issues around<br/ >their children's safety were frequently addressed by the women and their advocates during<br/ >the interviews. We discuss how the women made sense of their responsibilities for<br/ >protecting their children at different times during their relationship and how the meaning of<br/ >protecting their children changed as they engaged with court processes and advocacy<br/ >services.
