Closed petition Automatically remove parental responsibility from domestic abusers

We want the Government to automatically remove parental responsibility from parents who have been found to have committed domestic abuse. This should apply if someone is convicted of a domestic abuse offence, or where a family court finds that domestic abuse has taken place.

More details

The current law makes it too easy for people who have domestically abused a partner to retain contact with shared children, and to continually abuse victims through child arrangements. This needs to change for the wellbeing of the victim and child/children involved.
