Domestic Violence Awareness
After Math of Domestic Violence: Mental Health, Homelessness, and the Court System:
he unspoken side of D.V and Mental Health. We are going to be getting REAL honest about Domestic Violence and Mental Health by looking at the unspoken side and under acknowledged side of these issues.
"Domestic violence is not about size, gender, or strength. "It's about abuse, control, and power. Getting out of dangerous situations and getting help, whether you are a woman being abused, or a man."
We as a society do not want to acknowledge that just like women, men suffer from abuse and struggle with mental health, nor do we provide a safe, non-judgmental space for them speak up and seek help.
The Family Court System Verses The Parents
Parents resort to the Family Court when they cannot agree amicably. However, a vicious cycle can set in because the costs, delays and polarisation of the court process can aggravate their disagreement, leading to even greater demands on the Family Court process.The primary driver of these problems in the Family Court is the breakdown of the family. If families were more stable there would be less demand on the Family Court. Currently, family breakdown is treated primarily as a legal issue. However, the consequences of family breakdown are not only legal; they are family dynamics, child and parental emotional distress, damage to mental health etc. As highlighted below, public funds are used primarily for the legal process with little being used for treatment (eg mental health) of the participants. The emotional needs of the children are not being met.
As with any industry, those working in the Family Court, lawyers representing their clients, Guardian Ad Litems and those offering services to Domestic Abuse victims all derive their incomes from the current system. As such, they have no incentive to make the whole system more efficient, streamlined, less adversarial etc.
The formula used to calculate Child Maintenance payments is based on the number of nights the child spends with each parent. This incentivises one parent to reduce contact with the other as this results in them receiving higher support payments.
