Description
This fully updated Reader provides a comprehensive review of recent research and legislation relating to domestic violence and its consequences for children. It assesses the effects on children's future well-being and identifies the implications for practice.
Divided into three parts, the book covers evidence for the links between domestic violence and child abuse, current criminal and civil legislation, and practical issues for interventions with children and their carers, male perpetrators, and women. Endorsed by leading children's charities, it offers informed guidance for professionals working with children who are experiencing domestic violence.
With its focus on developing collaborative child care and protection responses, this Reader is an essential resource for anyone working with children affected by domestic violence.
