“…The upshot, according to these critics, is that contact is made available to fathers as a site through which they can continue to "exert power and control" over mothers and children with impunity (Varcoe & Irwin, 2004, p. 78; see also Beeble et al, 2007;Davis, 2004;Eriksson & Hester, 2001;Harrison, 2008;Hester & Radford, 1996;Rhoades, 2002). Prompted by these observations, renewed calls have been made by advocates and academics for professionals working on family court matters to recognize the destructive realities of male violence (Eriksson & Hester, 2001;Hester & Radford, 1996;Harrison, 2008;Rhoades, 2002;Varcoe & Irwin, 2004;Wuest et al, 2006).

“…7 Such criticisms have been particularly well elaborated in relation to the plight produced by the current legal context for mothers who have left violent male partners (see, for example, Beeble et al, 2007;Davis, 2004;Eriksson & Hester, 2001;Harrison, 2008;Hester & Radford, 1996;Kaye et al, 2003;Neustein & Lesher, 2005;Rhoades, 2002;Varcoe & Irwin, 2004;Wuest et al, 2006).
