Book excerpt: The aim of the project informing this report set out to critically analyse Policing Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour: responding to vulnerable families by reflecting on more than 9 months of reported incident data. There is an accepted barrier in developing analysis of Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) due to the ‘nature of the beast’. Generally speaking, families do not, or will not, discuss violence in the home in most situations: be this adult to adult/ child to adult/ adult to child. For this reason, the data analysed only represents those families who were in contact with Northumbria Police during the data collection period; and in all probability represent the ‘tip of the iceberg’. It is acknowledged the data is an insight only rather than a whole view of CCVAB. At times the officers attending are unable to offer any real intervention due to the age of the child involved, something that is beyond their control. For this reason, the thoughts of Schon come to mind where ‘In the varied topography of professional practice, there is a high, hard ground overlooking a swamp…” or the ‘outsider’ professional lens that CCVAB is seen. The professional lens (such as that of a responding officer) can allow for application of theory, where “On the high ground manageable problems lend themselves to solution through application of research-based theory and technique”. In practice this would include the Home Office Guidelines for Adolescent to Parent Abuse (2015). Unfortunately, the Home Office Guidance does not include advice on what to do for any child under the age of ‘Adolescence’. This oversight means there is no mechanism for the police to detail the incident other than refer the family to relevant Child Service agencies. Current and previous evidence from research and working with families experiencing CCVAB details how CCVAB can commence from age 2-3 years and more frequently commences between the ages of 6-9 years than at any other age. This means that at the time of police involvement the escalation of CCVAB behaviours may have been ongoing for more than 6 years, without any intervention, support or professional awareness of the situation. This unreported and unsupported position can leave families ‘In the swampy lowland,’ where ‘messy, confusing problems defy technical solution’. The sections in this report present the findings mapped to the objectives for the project including: · Current discussion relating to CCVAB- what it is and how this is defined · Objective 1: Prevalence of CCVAB responses made by Northumbria Police · Objective 2: Pre-indicators for CCVAB behaviours that lead to the request for police intervention · Objective 3: Commonality of behaviour traits displayed requiring police response · Objective 4: Outcomes for children displaying CCVAB in contact with Northumbria Police · Recommendations for future ‘Policing of Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour and responding to vulnerable families'

Book excerpt: How Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) is discussed both historically and more recently in 2017, Thorley and Coates felt they were ‘Grappling with an Enigma’ when trying to explain Child to Parent Violence and Abuse (CPVA) due to the various limitations of definitions created. For example, was there a difference in behaviour displayed between: • CPV - Child to Parent Violence compared to • CPVA- Child to Parent Violence and Abuse or • VCB- Violent Challenging Behaviour or • VCB - Violent Childhood Behaviour or • APVA - Adolescence to Parent Violence and Abuse Alternatively, were definitions developed by professionals depending on which lens they saw the behaviour through? Or were terms used to reflect what families described the behaviour to be? Or perhaps terms varied depending on the age of the child. For this reason, they introduced Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) as an umbrella term for all of the previously used acronyms. Adopting CCVAB as a single definition allowed for all children to be included up to the age of 18 years old (as per legal definitions) and onto 25 years old for those with SEND. This definition recognised that many of the behaviours displayed were not ‘towards’ parents directly and could involve property damage, be directed at siblings or be displayed indirectly towards others including peers at school or school staff. The aim of this project set out to critically analyse Policing Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour: responding to vulnerable families by reflecting on more than 9 months of reported incident data. There is an accepted barrier in developing analysis of Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) due to the ‘nature of the beast’. Generally speaking, families do not, or will not, discuss violence in the home in most situations: be this adult to adult/ child to adult/ adult to child. It is acknowledged the data is an insight only rather than a whole view of CCVAB. This insight is a necessary step for developing a more informed approach to Policing Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive Behaviour.

Book excerpt: This book sets out the final report for the 2018 Child to Parent Violence and Aggression survey by Dr Wendy Thorley and Mr Al Coates. The book is set out over 8 sections to recognise the voices of those parent/ carers who took part in the survey, detailing what their real world was and has been. Childrens violent and aggressive behaviour is gaining wider recognition across society that has led to an 'opening up' towards understanding what CPVA means; however in the real world little has changed in providing these families with the support they need now. This makes this book relevant to professionals and those within society as a parent/carer or those who want to gain better understanding of children's challenging, violent or aggressive behaviours. Within the book Section 1 looks back at the past 18 months of developing awareness of CPVA and provides an insight into who the parent/ carers were who took part in the survey; collectively representing 538 of the families living with CPVA today. Section 2 considers if there is a higher risk in some families of CPVA occurring than other families based on the type of family the child lives in and the approach to parenting adults adopt. This section also recognises that CPVA is not exclusively a parent/ carer issue but impacts and affects everyone within the home including siblings. Section 3 considers age-stage developmental norms and how these do not reflect the behaviour parent/ carers report. This section also challenges perceptions that CPVA is an adolescent concern and argues that the lack of support for children under the age of adolescence does little to address the behaviour becoming entrenched or escalating. Section 4 offers a wider approach to why children behave in this way and highlights that there is a distinct difference between those children who intend to engage CPVA and those children who do not. This section provides an alternative distinct pathway and argues that for those children who do not intend to display CPVA the World Health Organisation categories should be applied, rather than adopting CPVA definitions to reflect all children who display seen as CPVA. Section 5 presents the real world cost to families living with CPVA in both economical terms and emotional costs. Families living with CPVA highlight how this affects employment opportunities, relationships, and their overall physical and emotional well-being that over time is costly not only to the family themselves but to society overall. Section 6 reflects on who supports families living with CPVA across a range of services and discusses effectiveness from the family viewpoint, that leads to Section 7. Section 7 provides the parent/ carer voice and highlights what these families would like to happen next, in order to support them and their child. nine recommendations are made by parent/ carers living with CPVA if society is to move from talking about CPVA and addressing CPVA. the final section, Section 8, reflects on CPVA overall and reconsiders how CPVA is perceived across society and across those services who support families, highlighting that without change the status quo remains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to break new ground in the way in which adolescent-to-parent violence and abuse is understood. Incorporating knowledge from an original research project undertaken in the UK and international literature, this book provides insight into the prevalence of this form of domestic violence which can include psychological, physical, and economic abuse. Young person and family characteristics are explored, and links are made between sibling aggression and school bullying behaviours. A key theme is how the data can be used to develop statistical models which can screen for young people behaving abusively towards their parents. It discusses how the research can be applied to inform theoretical frameworks, policy development, and professional practice, with a focus on prevention and early intervention that uses positive youth justice and restorative approaches.

National Teaching Fellow Higher Education Academy and published by CEL&T Training and Development. This book was released on 2020-05-18 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the updated version of Lets Talk About Child to Parent Violence to recognise that Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) in the home involves more than parents. CCVAB affects everyone in the home, children as well as any other adult. Childhood Challenging Violent or Aggressive behaviour in the home is gaining wider recognition across society leading to an 'opening up' of the lives of families but in the real world little has changed for families. This book is relevant to professionals and parent/carers or those who want to gain a better understanding of Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB). CCVAB can be diagnosed as a cognitive disorder identified by the World Health Organisation as a 'Conduct Disorder within the context of the family' yet this diagnosis has not been used for children so far. CCVAB is most usually thought of as Adolescent to Parent Violence and Abuse (APVA) but this overlooks the age when most CCVAB starts - at the age of 6-9 years. For families this means they are left unsupported until children reach adolescence when the behaviour has escalated and become entrenched, something that could have been prevented had earlier recognition been made. Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour (CCVAB) is an umbrella term for a range of acronyms previously used to identify children's challenging, violent or aggressive behaviour in the home. Previous acronyms such as CPVA or APVA focus on violence and abuse towards the parent themselves yet evidence repeatedly shows this is not always the case and sibling abuse or property destruction can also happen. We look to open up understanding and highlight how listening to families is the first step of developing support for these families and remove preconceived views about who these families and children are. We consider CCVAB against new information about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), children with Special Educational Needs or Disability (SEND), Neurological development and Learning Difficulties to bring attention to the many ways that Childhood Challenging, Violent or Aggressive Behaviour can happen. This book looks at what is known and what is emerging to help provide better understanding. the impact on families living with CCVAB is immense, by including parents views these families explain what living with CCVAB is for them in the real world and how little support is available to them and their family

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of our children live in communities where violence, fear, and despair are commonplace. This book describes how one city developed a collaborative effort between law-enforcement and mental health professionals in order to help these children and their families. The Child Development-Community Policing Program in New Haven, Connecticut, was initiated in 1991 to deal more effectively with children who are victims or perpetrators of violence. Police officers, preparing for the new responsibilities of community-based policing, have become familiar with an array of strategies for preventing and responding to community violence. Mental health professionals have learned firsthand about the texture and trauma of the lives of children at risk. Police and mental health professionals working together have been able to mobilize treatment services more quickly and effectively and to assure that treatment plans are carried out. This manual provides a model, case studies, and guidelines for training the participants, operating a consultation service, and evaluating the program on an ongoing basis, all of which will be useful for other communities seeking to implement a similar project.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parricide and Violence Against Parents takes a historical and criminological approach to the research on parricide and violence against parents, placing the research in the context of social development from the 1500s to contemporary society, and giving a global overview and comparison. The book examines parricide and violence against parents as historically and culturally sensitive phenomena. It offers evidence on a seemingly rare subject from different eras, areas, and cultures, and then uses the cross-disciplinary data to produce a new, systematic insight for the reader. Case studies shift the discussion from the contemporary focus on adolescent to parent abuse, to examining the sources of conflict during life cycles of parents and their offspring. A historical approach illuminates the variations in conflicts between parents and their offspring that are shaped by the life stages of the victims and offenders themselves across time. The book argues that parental authority has been marked by property ownership and tax paying responsibilities throughout history. The continued possession of property resulted in power, the reluctance to part with it, becoming a notable source of conflict across generations within families. Parental authority was protected by means of heavy penalties and punishments and didactic teachings in almost every society at every stage of historical development. It was also challenged constantly by children as a part of their coming into adulthood. The abuse of parents has often been connected to situations where adult children were prevented from gaining the amount of independence appropriate to their position in life. This led to disputes over authority and the legitimate grounds for that authority. Offering an insight into complicated and interconnected histories of generational conflicts and how they affect modern families in different parts of the world, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of criminology, history of crime, history of the family, family violence, homicide studies, gender studies, history of emotions, political violence, and social work.

Download or read book Child to Parent Aggression and Violence written by Hue San Kuay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-09 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parent-directed aggression and violence by children is a complex issue and may not be explained by focusing upon a single factor. The affected parents tend to delay seeking help from professionals due to not knowing where to seek help or even an inability to identify their experiences as a problem. This book provides parents and professionals with the much-needed information to tackle this incidence. In this book, Hue San Kuay and Graham Towl draw upon the evidence from past studies and case examples to describe the occurrence of child to parent aggression and violence, and highlight the roles by individuals and communities in intervening and preventing agression and violence. The nature-versus-nurture debate is included and callous-unemotional traits are explained as a predictor of aggression. The effect of parent-directed aggression is discussed, and prevention and intervention methods are presented. Delaying help-seeking could lead to serious consequences and make it harder to effectively intervene. Child to Parent Aggression and Violence is an essential read for practitioners and researchers working with parents, and most importantly, for parents themselves. This book includes suggestions for interventions, self-assessment on parent-directed aggression by children, and points of contact as reference to ease the process for both parents and practitioners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Oxford Centre for Criminology, this edited collection of essays seeks to explore the changing contours of criminal justice over the past half century and to consider possible shifts over the next few decades.The question of how social science disciplines develop and change does not invite any easy answer, with the task made all the more difficult given the highly politicised nature of some subjects and the volatile, evolving status of its institutions and practices. A case in point is criminal justice: at once fairly parochial, much criminal justice scholarship is now global in its reach and subject areas that are now accepted as central to its study - victims, restorative justice, security, privatization, terrorism, citizenship and migration (to name just a few) - were topics unknown to the discipline half a century ago. Indeed, most criminologists would have once stoutly denied that they had anything to do with it. Likewise, some central topics of past criminological attention, like probation, have largely receded from academic attention and some central criminal justice institutions, like Borstal and corporal punishment, have, at least in Europe, been abolished. Although the rapidity and radical nature of this change make it quite impossible to predict what criminal justice will look like in fifty years' time, reflection on such developments may assist in understanding how it arrived at its current form and hint at what the future holds.The contributors to this volume have been invited to reflect on the impact Oxford criminology has had on the discipline, providing a unique and critical discussion about the current state of criminal justice around the world and the origins and future implications of contemporary practice. All are leading internationally-renowned criminologists whose work has defined and often re-defined our understanding of criminal justice policy and literature.

This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outgrowth of a conference planned as a response to the need for researchers and clinicians to develop integrated plans for addressing the psychological trauma of children exposed to violence, this volume's goals are: * to summarize research on the subject with particular emphasis on the Gulf War; * to use this information to formulate an outline of what current knowledge suggests are reasonable approaches to public mental health intervention; and * to develop an agenda for future research necessary for improving clinical efforts in varying international conflicts. A significant collection of diverse perspectives attending to a diversity of cultural and political contexts, the contributors offer many conclusions about important dimensions for analyzing the effects of violence on children. Suggesting informed approaches to public mental health efforts which can be implemented, the work presented here directs attention to the need for interdisciplinary collaboration among researchers and clinicians to better understand the effects of exposure to violence on the psychological well being of children and the optimal modes of remediation on individual, family, and community levels.
