3) This was the same culture which promoted secrecy & silence around suicide & childhood sexual abuse in Ireland. Domestic violence is the final taboo. A hidden, private family matter. Shameful. Yet, survivors of childhood domestic violence regularly speak of the harm of secrecy.

9) This is one of the reasons why women stay. Leaving a relationship with children means that despite known violence, the perpetrator will in most cases,continue to have access to and at times, full custody of the children. Leaving is often less safe for mothers than staying.

1. As a social worker there are two Irelands. Those who see the devastating impact of Leo's ideology, on health, disability, child homelessness and privatisation of social care and those who think there are times to be silent on it.
Opposition let themselves down this week with attacks on Leo Varadkar.
It was one of those times politics should have been set aside but Labour, SF, the Soc Dems,and PBP could barely articulate a proper farewell to the departing Taoiseach.

5) Gaining custody of the kids in NO way means that a man has not perpetrated violence against a woman. I can think of multiple cases where a man explained away, minimised, denied or admitted violence to police, courts and social workers and still got custody of his children.
