abstract="Drawing on data collected as part of a qualitative study on parent abuse, this article explores how child to parent violence is constructed by professionals working within the three related domains of youth justice, domestic violence and child protection. The article, a discussion piece, charts the continuities and contradictions contained within practitioners' understandings of this form of family violence, focusing on how the problem emerges, the causal explanations employed and their impact on practice responses.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
