Johnston, Roseby, and Kuehnle take you behind the child's eyes, into their heads...[they] flesh out the familial context, and bring it all back into the larger social world....When you are done reading, you know who these families are, what the children need, and as a clinician how you can help them.Marsha Kline Pruett, PhD, MSLMaconda Brown O'Connor ProfessorSmith College School for Social WorkThis book addresses problems that arise for children of conflicted and violent divorce.It provides a good base for beginning to treat children in this situation as well as good information for understanding the legal and community services available.'Doody'sThe fully updated and revised edition of In the Name of the Child examines both the immediate and longterm effects of highconflict divorce on children. By combining three decades of research with clinical experience, the authors trace the developmental problems affecting very young children through adolescence and adulthood, paying special attention to the impact of family violence and the dynamics of parental alienation.The authors present clinical interventions that have proven to be most effective in their own clinical work with families. With a new emphasis on the need for prevention and early intervention, this edition examines how defensive strategies and symptoms of distress in children can consolidate into immutable, longstanding psychopathology in their adult lives. This book contains the policies and procedures that can preempt these highconflict outcomes in divorcing families.Key Features:Contains a new chapter examining the effects of violent divorce on a sample of young adults, tracking their developmental changes from adolescence through adulthood Discusses the developmental threats to both boys and girls of different ages and stages, along with therapeutic interventions and guidelines for parenting plans Proposes principles and criteria for decisionmaking about custody, visitation, and parenting plans based on individual assessment of the developing child within his or her familyMental health professionals, educators, family lawyers, judges, and court administrators will find this book to be an essential read, with all the knowledge and insight needed to understand the short and longterm effects of violent divorce on children.'
