The purpose of this study is to investigate the influencing factors of parental child abuse by North Korean refugees who are living in South Korea. In-depth interviews were conducted with five parents who escaped from North Korea. The study identified three categories of factors impacting child abuse: the weakening of family functions from past experiences before and after defection, the stress of adapting to the culture of an unfamiliar society, and low parenting self-efficacy. North Korean parents suffered from emotional and functional crises from past traumatic events and, at the same time, experienced additional acculturative stress as a “minority” after entering South Korea, even as they continued to deal with Maternal Parenting Stress. These complex factors have been shown to lead to child abuse in migrant societies. This study contemplated the context of child abuse through specific examples. The results could provide thoughtful insights into child abuse among migrants and refugee parents, and provide evidence-based intervention plans for its prevention.

Reporting Laws

This comment responds to Vanessa Deverson’s article titled ‘Child Abuse and Neglect: Mandatory Reporting and the Legal Profession’ and examines whether it is desirable for lawyers to be required to report child abuse and neglect that may be revealed by their clients. The comment begins by articulating the role of the legal profession, and explains how it differs from other professions. Part I explains that an obligation to report child abuse would fundamentally change the role of the legal profession in defending or asserting the rights, liberties and liabilities of their clients. Part II argues that even if mandatory reporting were to be brought in, it would be unlikely achieve its intended purpose because it would create suspicion towards the legal profession and undermine its role. The final Part discusses current South Australian draft legislation aimed at protecting children and argues that this may be a more appropriate route. The comment concludes that current Northern Territory reporting laws do not belong in a legal system that depends on clients having confidence in their lawyers.

Child abuse allegations in the context of parental separation and divorce have long been seen as merely weapons fashioned by angry and vindictive parents involved in separation and divorce wars. They have been disregarded on the basis that they were unlikely to be real.However recent research from Australia and overseas has shown that this picture is not true. Child abuse in this context is real and it is serious. Moreover the research has shown that the socio-legal system does not serve children caught in this situation at all well.The Magellan program, a world first experimental program to overcome the problems for these children and their families as they progress through the socio-legal system, was introduced by a consortium of agencies in Victoria recently. This article reports on the program and its outcomes, and considers implications of some of the components of the new program for the various professionals working with this issue.
