Children bereaved by the death of one parent at the hands of the
other, almost always the father, in effect lose both parents. The
children are then uprooted, losing their home and, quite often,
their familiar routine and essential relationships. The combined
effects of trauma, dislocation and loss are dramatic, but little
has been written so far about such tragedies and the implications
for everyone concerned in the future of affected children. The
authors of "When Father Kills Mother" all have special experience
of treating such children. They discuss the importance of
debriefing children immediately after they have witnessed violence
and indicate what therapeutic help will be of most value to both
the children and their carers. They examine the legal aspect of the
tragedy, not only the civil rights of children and their role as
witnesses, but the role of social workers, guardians and courts as
decision-makers for the children. Difficult practical problems are
all considered from the children's point of view as the authors
seek answers to such questions as: where should the children live?;
how should their future be planned?; and should they see their
fathers in prison?
