Hannah Summers Sadly, my research shows that the family court - and professionals working within it - don’t understand how to deal with PA and its interplay in cases where DA a feature. I’ve had 5 cases in recent weeks where Cafcass have advocated for expert to diagnose PA, including 2 where

Excerpt from my article ⬇️ which talks about SHERA Research Group: Health Law Rights Support © paper on child sexual abuse (CSA) in the family courts. We need to see an end to allegations of CSA being reframed as parental alienation as it is placing children at risk and damaging lives. Reform is urgently needed.

This got me. Angela Rayner clear it's not just hard as woman but as working-class woman. More so, speaking about her WORTH & PRIDE in who she is (w/o apology/show of knowing place). And how often do we see WC joy, fun, pleasure? At all in media/politics never mind from deputy PM?

🧵In my years of working with women who’ve experienced domestic abuse, their experiences of the family courts have almost always been cited as a source of secondary trauma - not only for them, but also their children.

As CEO of Rape Crisis England & Wales the family courts continue to be a concern to me; we know that most victims of rape and sexual abuse never disclose what has happened to them - to anyone. But one of the situations in which they do , is when trying to protect their children

It is hard to comprehend the abhorrent details of this case. Gisèle Pélicot has told a court she waived her right to anonymity "for every woman who has been drugged without knowing it". tinyurl.com/yeyt2465

"The child sexual abuse cases that come to my office...are concerning. They involve children’s experiences of sexual abuse, and their wishes and feelings regarding parental contact, being dismissed...& reframed by family court as the consequence of ‘parental alienation’."

There are some shocking details in this paper looking at the experiences of 10 mothers & their children who reported child sex abuse in the family courts | "Only fathers who had criminal convictions for CSA were considered as meeting the threshold for concern for risk or harm."

It's been two weeks since The Observer published my story about how the sexsomnia defence derailed my rape case. The response has been overwhelming, and I hope it continues to shed light on the urgent need for justice reform. Survivors deserve better - our voices matter.
