The unintended Consequences of rebuttable Presumptions to Determine Child Custody in Domestic Violence Cases.
- Authors
GARVIN, ZOE
- Abstract
The article explores ways in which balancing a child's interest and a parent's fundamental right when granting de facto parent status can be done. It reports the negative impact and psychological harm that a child can suffer when an individual who has acted as that child's parent for a significant amount of time is removed from that child's life; role of abusive parents; and impact of child abuse on children.
