dc.description.notesSummary of a report which looks at the government proposal for a rebuttable presumption of joint custody in cases appearing before the Family Court and finds it to be neither an appropriate nor effective means of achieving shared parenting. Briefly looks at changes in the family over the past century which have produced the contradictory results of both greater paternal involvement in child raising and greater exclusion from paternal involvement. Shows that the most consistent determinant of children’s well-being in situations where the children do not live with the father is fathers’ ‘authoritative’ parenting. It also examines the debate over the function of the biological father as role model and looks at the politics of the ‘fathers’ rights’ movement. Lists five problems with the proposed presumption of joint residence which make the legislative change unnecessary, unworkable or unlikely to result in better parenting. Alternatively, offers five societal strategies to increase fathers’ involvement with children both before and after separation and divorce.en
