Closed Review the law, sentencing, and rehabilitation of abusive parents

Closed on

I would like the Government to commission a review to look into how the justice system can be improved to ensure abusive parents pay for how their actions affect their child. This review should also consider the best forms of rehabilitation so they learn it’s not right to treat kids this way.

There are too many adults who were abused as children and still suffer terribly as a result of that abuse. This review should help to ensure no more people suffer in this way.
