	Title	Family violence: Walking the tight rope between maternal alienation and child safety			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2005	Publication	Contemporary Nurse	Abbreviated Journal
	Volume	18	Issue	1-2	Pages	85-96
	Keywords	Nursing; Domestic violence; Nurse-patient relations; Children
	Abstract	This paper discusses the complexity of family violence for nurses negotiating the 'tight rope' between the prime concern for the safety of children and further contributing to maternal alienation, within a New Zealand context. The premise that restoration of the mother-child relationship is paramount for the long-term wellbeing of both the children and the mother provides the basis for discussing implications for nursing practice. Evidence shows that when mothers are supported and have the necessary resources there is a reduction in the violence and abuse she and her children experience; this occurs even in situations where the mother is the primary abuser of her children. The family-centred care philosophy, which is widely accepted as the best approach to nursing care for children and their families, creates tension for nurses caring for children who are the victims of abuse as this care generally occurs away from the context of the family.
