A study of 3,500 young Australians found high rates of childhood online sexual victimisation, including non-consensual image sharing and adult sexual solicitation. These findings highlight the need for targeted protections and interventions to prevent online sexual exploitation, particularly of girls.
In this session, we hear from researchers from Deakin University, who investigated the links between childhood maltreatment and aggression in adults, and the moderating role of neurocognitive ability and substance use. While this research does not look specifically at young people, some of the findings have obvious implications for our work with younger cohorts.
‘I don't know what is autism, what is normal teenage behaviour, and what is naughtiness’. This article presents findings from a UK-based qualitative study that explored parents/carers experiences of child to parent violence (CPV) from their child who has a neurodevelopmental difference.
Researchers analysed data from 463 public comments posted on YouTube in response to four UK news broadcasts that reported on the problem. Using a discourse analytic approach, we examined how posted comments framed the cause of, and solutions to, CPV.
Examining data from in-depth interviews with 15 mothers who experience CPV, this article explores how mothers construct themselves as a ‘safe space’ through which their child can manage their distress. The tensions and emotional conflicts this produces for mothers, as well as the harms that result, are highlighted. Discussion focusses on the usefulness of understanding family violence from an ‘ethics of care’ framework, and the implications for violence prevention through broader social change.
Research findings highlight the importance of early interventions for young people who use violence against their siblings, and the missed opportunities within current responses to address the increased risk of future perpetration of intimate partner violence.
This important In Conversation discussion brings together insights from research, cultural, practice experts and lived experience to explore the intersection of family violence and child sexual abuse.
