You may be interested in this report (.pdf file) in which the experiences of 22 women are used to attack Australia's shared parenting rules.
I am a regular reader but did not post this at the site as for personal reasons I don't want my name associated with this particular tussle. Articles in newspapers supporting his absurd study are here. Excerpt:
'Minister for Women, Jodi McKay, today launched the No Way to Live report at NSW Parliament House.
The report by senior lecturer at the University of Sydney, Dr Lesley Laing, looks at how Australias family law system responds to victims of domestic violence, Ms McKay said.
Importantly the research and resulting report moves beyond an analysis of the law itself and analyses the way the law supports victims, many of who we know are women.
As well as being informative, the report is a testament to the courage, resilience and great dignity of the 22 women whose experiences are told in the report.
Ms McKay said building a well informed evidence base is critical to reducing domestic violence and that is why this report is so important. The No Way to Live report provides first hand experiences of how the Family Law System has assisted and responded to victims of domestic violence, Ms McKay said.
It also highlights the key role support services play in the family law system and that workers need comprehensive and ongoing training to ensure they provide the best response to victims.'
