Te Awatea Review, 4(2), pp. 21-22.http://hdl.handle.net/10092/655The paucity of attention paid to adolescent violence towards parents is indicated by the sparse literature on the topic. Clearly, there is an urgent need to conduct research into this aspect of family life. A research study will, therefore, be designed to explore the perspectives of parents who experience adolescent violence and to determine the direction for developing effective policies and services to address the needs of parents and young people.enJournal ArticleFields of Research::370000 Studies in Human Society::370100 Sociology::370199 Sociology not elsewhere classifiedFields of Research::370000 Studies in Human Society::370200 Social Work::370299 Social work not elsewhere classified
