How can professionals build constructive relationships with
families where the parents dispute professional allegations of
serious child abuse? How can meaningful safety for children be
created in these families? How can professionals work together
constructively in such cases? Situations where parents refute child
abuse allegations made against them are often deemed to be
impossible or untreatable by statutory and treatment professionals.
These cases can consume enormous amounts of professional time and
energy and frequently become bogged down by ongoing
professional-family mistrust and dispute. Often, the decision to
close such cases comes about not because the children are safe, but
rather because the professionalsrun out of ideas, time and energy.
"Working with 'Denied' Child Abuse" presents an innovative,
safety-focused, partnership-based, model called Resolutions, which
provides an alternative approach for responding rigourously and
creatively to such cases. It describes each stage of this practical
model and demonstrates the approach through many case examples from
therapists, statutory social workers and other professionals
working in Europe, North America and Australasia. The book is key
reading for legal, health and social care professionals working in
the area of child protection.
