Beyond Parental Control. Is anyone to blame?
- Details
When proceedings commence because a child is ‘beyond parental control’ to what extent is it necessary or helpful to pursue in addition threshold findings that a child has also suffered significant harm as a consequence of the care they have received?
Do such findings shift the ‘blame’ away from the parents and onto the child?
In this webinar, George Butler (42BR Barristers) is joined by Dr Ben Laskey (Chartered Psychologist) to explore the implications of seeking these findings from both a legal and psychological perspective.
