Quantifying the Sites of Government, Commercial, and Personal Systems‐Perpetrated Financial Abuse
This study explores the institutional systems through which post‐separation financial abuse is perpetrated. While existing measures seek to quantify the harms experienced by women post‐separation, this study draws on financial, welfare and legal service casefiles to identify where such harms occur. Drawing on 76 de‐identified Victorian service casefiles, the findings show that government, commercial and private financial systems are implicated in…
“Courts are not … therapeutic agencies”
This article examines the role of therapeutic jurisprudence in Australian post‐separation parenting disputes involving family violence. A recent appellate court decision has asserted that “courts are not, and cannot operate like, therapeutic agencies”. We engage with the therapeutic origins of the Family Court of Australia, the family courts' role in the “web of accountability” for family violence, the potential for judicial officers to motivate …
Mapping Intimate Partner Financial Abuse Across Public and Private Systems
This article maps the ways that intimate partner financial abuse presents, and the range of public and private entities involved in its perpetration. It reports on an analysis of submissions by individuals to the Australian parliamentary inquiry into the Financial Services Regulatory Framework in Relation to Financial Abuse. Our analysis documents the web of systems through which financial abuse can be perpetrated in ways that are largely uncheck…
Ca(u)se of gender-affirming healthcare for children
Talk to Us, Not About Us’
A hive of recent policy and legislative activity in Australian family law has emphasized the importance of children's right to participate in decision‐making following parental separation. Yet a powerful tension persists between supporting children's right to participation and protecting children from parental conflict. While children have called for ‘a bigger voice, more of the time’ in family law decision‐making processes, research is yet to ex…
Adolescent autonomy to make a ‘catastrophically bad’ decision informed by religious beliefs
This article examines the Australian case law in which medical treatment has been authorised against the wishes of a Gillick competent adolescent, in circumstances where the adolescent’s decision to refuse treatment has been informed by their religious beliefs. We analyse three factors that have shaped the Australian jurisprudence – medical evidence regarding the adolescent’s prognosis and risk of death; the role of religion in adolescents’ medic…
Children's voices for change
Researching with children and young people on topics that are considered to be 'sensitive', such as family violence, trauma and abuse, continues to be challenging. But there still is not enough evidence on children and young people's own views and experiences of participating in 'sensitive' research. This article reflects on our experience, as a team of young lived experience advocates and a university researcher, of working together on a project…
Parental gender affirmation and children’s best interests in Australian family law
This article examines how the Australian family courts have considered parental gender affirmation when determining the best interests of children in post-separation parenting disputes under Part VII of the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth). It analyses three features of the jurisprudence which arguably challenge the acceptance of transgender and gender diverse (‘TGD’) families in Australian family law: the potential risk of harm to children, and the imp…
Re-thinking privacy in Australia in the wake of Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization
In June 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States overturned its decision in Roe v Wade, 410 US 113 (1973), which had established a right to abortion founded on an implied constitutional right to privacy. The decision in Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization, 597 US (2022) has sparked fervent debate about women’s reproductive rights and access to healthcare in the United States. This article presents a decisional privacy perspective on D…
A theory of children's decisional privacy
Decisional privacy offers individuals the freedom to act and to make important decisions about how they live their lives, without unjustifiable interference from other individuals or the state. Children's perceived vulnerability, incapacity for rational decision-making and dependence on adults have been used to justify depriving children of decisional privacy rights and subjecting them to the exercise of adult power over the conditions of their l…
Brian Gran, The Sociology of Children’s Rights
In The Sociology of Children’s Rights, Brian Gran interrogates two questions that remain critical to scholarly debates concerning children’s rights: Why are children’s rights needed if children have human rights? Why should children’s rights be taken seriously? While children’s rights scholars have sought to answer these fraught questions (e.g. Freeman, 1987; Freeman, 1992; Fortin, 2004; Freeman, 2007), Gran responds from a sociological perspecti…
Rethinking Re Kelvin
Australia was, until recently, the only country in the world in which court authorisation was required for the medical treatment of children diagnosed with gender dysphoria. The decision of the Full Court of the Family Court of Australia in Re Kelvin (2017) 351 ALR 329 swung the pendulum of decision-making authority for transgender children’s medical treatment from the Family Court back to the child and the child’s parents and treating medical pr…
