“Violence against children is not genusrelaterat”
“Replica where umgängessabotage and parental child abduction”
“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”
“the DEBATE. We are opposed to all violence, and all types of abuse against children. It includes the physical as well as psychological violence. It is therefore distressing to read ”Protect our children from fathers who are perpetrators”. It shall we, and society, of course, do, but if you are sincere in the approach, so you must be opposed to all violence, not only the physical violence that men and fathers are exercising against children. “
“the Article is a party pleading from a special interest and must be seen to be there. This is what the national Crime prevention council: ”Of the suspects of assaults against small children is the percentage of women relative high compared with other crimes, over 40 per cent of the suspects of assaults against children 0 to 6 years old are women (2015)”. “
“of course You can do as the debaters do, and choose their statistics by function – but it is a huge betrayal of Sweden’s children to relativize such a large part of the violence against children. “
“The current judgment of the Svea court of appeal is a question of weighing two different risks, namely the risk of physical abuse and risk of psychological abuse of the child deprived of the opportunity to meet both parents. “
“This is a difficult balance that requires specific knowledge of the case. Regardless of this specific case, we believe that the ruling shows the importance of the children have contact with both parents. “
“the family court, which, thus, investigated the family on a number of occasions, believes that there is a risk that the father would expose the children to something that is not good for them. The family court further notes that the father most likely is the one that would best meet the children’s contact with both parents. “
“This is the heart of the matter. From evidence-based psychological research, today we know that the risk factors for children who lose contact with a ”good enough” parent, usually the father, is significant and often lifelong. “
“Where the absence of contact with a parent can provide psychological, but also several other injuries, even in adulthood. Decision of children’s best interests must be based on evidence-based knowledge. “
“Even if the will of the child is of importance, it is in this context difficult to speak of a free will, but to put this in a context. From research we know that children, who have a normal relationship with both parents, and who are deprived of contact with one parent for a longer period of time, often develops a reluctance to meet with this parent. “
“This description fits well into this case. The will of the child can thus be affected by the decision as the social workers and judges do. Under these circumstances, to talk about the child’s free will, but to problematize the concept is inappropriate. “
“the Key should be the needs of the children. Not the mother’s, not father’s, not the parents’. It is precisely the Svea court of appeal tried to do. “
