"Sibling Abuse in Fatherless Families and Multiple-Fathers Families"
What is Sibling Abuse? Is there any correlation between the lack of a father as a role Model in Single-Parent Families? How does sibling abuse affect families with Multiple Fathers?
Sibling abuse is a pervasive
issue that often goes unnoticed and unaddressed within families. It can take
various forms, including psychological, physical, and even sexual
abuse.

| Sibling Abuse Fatherless Britain |
Research has shown that the
presence or absence of a father figure in the household can significantly
impact the prevalence and severity of sibling abuse. In this blog post we take
a glimpse, broach and explore the correlation between, sibling abuse and the
lack of a father as a role model in single-parent families led by mothers, as
well as in families with children from multiple different fathers.
The Impact of a
Father’s Absence
Fathers play a crucial role
in the family structure, providing not only financial support but also
emotional stability and discipline. The absence of a father can lead to a lack
of authority and discipline in the household, which may result in increased aggression
and violence among siblings. Studies have shown that single-parent families,
particularly those headed by mothers, are more likely to experience higher
rates of sibling abuse (Eriksen & Jensen, 2006).
In households without a
father figure, the mother often bears the entire burden of parenting. This can
lead to increased stress and a lack of oversight, creating an environment where
sibling abuse can thrive. Without a strong paternal role model to mediate
conflicts and enforce discipline, children may resort to aggressive behaviour’s
to assert dominance or cope with their emotions.
Sibling Abuse in
Families with Multiple Fathers
Families with children from
multiple fathers face additional challenges. These blended family dynamics can
create jealousy, competition, and tension among siblings, increasing the
likelihood of abuse. Children in such families may struggle with feelings of
insecurity and rivalry, which can manifest as abusive behaviour towards their
siblings (Caffaro, 2014).
In these situations,
siblings may not feel a strong sense of unity and may see each other as
competitors for their mother’s attention and resources. This can exacerbate
conflicts and lead to a higher incidence of sibling abuse. The lack of a
consistent father figure across the siblings can also contribute to a
fragmented family structure, further increasing the risk of abuse.
Psychological
and Emotional Consequences
The psychological and
emotional consequences of sibling abuse are profound. Victims often suffer from
low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and trust issues. The impact of such
abuse can extend into adulthood, affecting their relationships and overall
mental health (Wiehe, 1997).
Correlation with
Domestic Abuse
Sibling abuse has been found
to correlate with domestic abuse later in life. Children who grow up in violent
environments are more likely to either become perpetrators or victims of
domestic violence as adults. The normalization of abusive behavior within the
family can set a dangerous precedent for future relationships (Noland et al.,
2004).
Strategies for
Prevention and Intervention
Addressing sibling abuse
requires a multi-faceted approach. Increasing awareness about the issue is
crucial. Parents, educators, and healthcare professionals need to recognize the
signs of sibling abuse and intervene early. Support systems, such as counselling
and family therapy, can help address underlying issues and promote healthier
family dynamics.
Furthermore, policies and
programs aimed at supporting single mothers and blended families can help
reduce the stress and challenges these families face, ultimately decreasing the
risk of sibling abuse. Providing resources for parenting education and support
can empower parents to create a safer and more nurturing environment for their
children.
Conclusion
The correlation between sibling abuse and the lack of a father as a role model is significant. Single-parent families led by mothers and families with multiple fathers are particularly vulnerable to higher rates of sibling abuse. Understanding and addressing this issue is essential for promoting healthier family dynamics and preventing the long-term psychological and emotional consequences of sibling abuse.

"The Effects of Father-Child Parental Alienation"
Unfortunately relationships breakup every day. Unfortunately, when relationships do breakup, very often fathers unfairly become alienated from their children, often, for long periods of time. These scenarios are exacerbated due the bias system none as, the Duluth Wheel Model, which we would encourage you to read after you've finished reading this page.
The Duluth Wheel Model teaches and encourages the professional’s
involved, to uphold any claims of domestic abuse by the mother, with the man unlike the normal rule of law, having to prove his innocents, creating the assumptions of guilt, and narratives
in society as a whole that men are abusers and women are victims.
Remember the poem; “Girls and boys, sugar and spice,” attributed by scholars of the original children’s version of this poem to the English poet, Robert Southey (1774–1843).
Verse
2
What are little boys made of, made of?
What are little boys made of?
Snips and snails and puppy-dog tails;
That’s what little boys are made of.
Verse
3
What
are little girls made of, made of?
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice and everything nice;
That’s what little girls are made of.
The
sudden removal of Fathers
The sudden removal of a loving father from a child's life
due to false accusations by the mother has profound psychological and emotional
effects on the children, affecting both boy’s and girl’s individually and in particular
way’s. This phenomenon, often seen in the context of contentious family
separations and custody battles, has been documented to result in a range of
adverse outcomes.
Psychological
and Emotional Effects
Anxiety
and Depression
Children, especially boys, who experience the abrupt
absence of their fathers often show increased levels of anxiety and depression.
Research has demonstrated that these children are more likely to suffer from
emotional distress, which can manifest as sadness, withdrawal, and a sense of
abandonment (Amato & Gilbreth, 1999).
Behavioural
Problems
Boys, in particular, may exhibit increased behavioural
problems following the sudden loss of their father. This includes heightened
aggression, defiance, and issues with authority figures. Such behavioural
problems are often a direct response to the emotional turmoil and instability
caused by the absence of a parental figure (Lamb, 2010).
Girls who lose a loving father suddenly may experience
heightened levels of anxiety and depression. The absence of a supportive father
figure can create a sense of instability and insecurity, leading to feelings of
sadness, fear, and abandonment (Amato, 2000).
Academic
Challenges
The emotional and psychological stress from losing a father
can also affect academic performance. Boys may struggle with concentration,
leading to poorer grades and disengagement from school activities. This
academic decline is linked to the lack of a stable and supportive home
environment (Coley, 2001).
Identity
and Self-Esteem Issues
Fathers play a crucial role in the development of a child's
identity and self-esteem. Boys, in particular, often look to their fathers as
role models. When a father is suddenly removed from their lives, boys may
struggle with identity issues and low self-esteem, feeling uncertain about
their role within the family and in society (Pleck, 2010).
As stated, the fact that fathers often play a critical role
in the development of a child’s identity and self-esteem, girls in particular
look to their fathers for affirmation and validation. When a father is suddenly
removed, it can lead to identity confusion and low self-esteem, making girls
feel less valued and supported (Pleck, 2010).
Long-Term
Consequences
Relationship
Difficulties
The impact of a father’s sudden absence often extends into
adulthood, affecting the child's ability to form and maintain healthy
relationships. Boys who experience losing their fathers in this manner, often
have difficulties with trust and intimacy, which very often leads to challenges
in their romantic and social lives (Amato, 2001).
The removal of a father often leads to trust issues and
difficulties in forming and maintaining relationships. Girls may struggle with
trusting others, including peers and future romantic partners, due to the
betrayal they perceive from the unjust removal of their father (Lamb, 2010).
This can result in long-term challenges in building healthy and stable
relationships.
Girls without a father figure often become more susceptible
to engaging in risky behaviours, such as early sexual activity, substance
abuse, and delinquency. The absence of a father’s guidance and supervision can
contribute to poor decision-making and increased vulnerability to negative influences
(Ellis et al., 2003).
Mental
Health
Long-term mental health issues are common among girls who
lose their fathers suddenly. The unresolved grief and emotional pain can lead
to chronic mental health problems such as anxiety disorders, depression, and
even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (Harper & Fine, 2006).
Long-term mental health issues are equally common among
boys who lose their fathers suddenly. The unresolved grief and emotional pain
can lead to chronic mental health problems such as anxiety disorders,
depression, and even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) (Harper & Fine,
2006).
As with girls, boys who grow up without a father figure may and often face challenges in forming healthy relationships. They may struggle with trust issues, have difficulties in their interactions with peers, and experience problems in future romantic relationships. The absence of a father can lead to a lack of guidance on how to form and maintain these relationships (Lamb, 2010).
Increased
Risk of Legal Issues
There is evidence suggesting that boys who grow up without
their fathers are at a higher risk of encountering legal issues. The lack of a
positive male role model can lead to poor decision-making and susceptibility to
peer pressure, resulting in criminal behaviour (Harper & McLanahan, 2004).
Research
and Statistics
Office
for National Statistics (ONS)
According to the Office for National Statistics, children
in single-parent households are more likely to experience poverty and social
disadvantage, which are correlated with the negative outcomes mentioned above
(ONS, 2019). The absence of a father figure exacerbates these issues,
particularly for boys who are deprived of a positive male role model.
Empirical
Studies
A study by Amato and Gilbreth (1999) highlights that
consistent father involvement, regardless of marital status, is crucial for a
child's well-being. Their meta-analysis indicates that children with involved
fathers tend to have better social and academic outcomes compared to those
without.
Conclusion
The sudden removal of a loving father from a child's life
due to false accusations by the mother can lead to significant psychological
and emotional distress, particularly for boys. The impacts range from immediate
emotional issues to long-term challenges in personal development and social behaviour.
Addressing these issues requires a nuanced understanding of family dynamics and
the implementation of support systems for affected children.

"Men Discriminated by Duluth Model"
This article has not been written to point the fingers at
women, but rather to highlight the injustices associated with the Duluth Model
and to explain its implications and repercussion's.
The Duluth Model, was developed in the 1980s to address domestic
violence and abuse, and has been critiqued for its one-dimensional view of power and control
dynamics, predominantly portraying men as perpetrators and women as victims.
This approach has led to criticisms regarding its fairness and effectiveness,
as it overlooks the many instances where men are victims and women are perpetrators. By
examining these issues, the article aims to foster a more balanced
understanding of domestic violence and abuse, that acknowledges the complexities of all
parties involved.
The
History of the Duluth Wheel Model, the Controversy, and
Implications
History and
Development
The
Duluth Model was developed in 1981 in Duluth, Minnesota, by a coalition of
women's advocates, law enforcement officials, and community leaders who sought
to create a more effective response to domestic violence. The model is cantered
on the "Power and Control Wheel," which outlines various tactics used
by abusers to exert control over their victims. The model emphasises that
domestic violence is a result of patriarchal ideologies and systemic power
imbalances (Pence & Paymar, 1993).
Controversy
Presumption of Guilt
and Gender Bias
One
of the primary criticisms of the Duluth Model is its inherent gender bias. The
model is often perceived as presuming the guilt of men accused of domestic
violence and inherently favouring women's accusations. Critics argue that the
Duluth Model operates under the assumption that domestic violence is
predominantly male-perpetrated and female-victimised, which can lead to unjust
outcomes. For instance, Dutton and Corvo (2006) assert that the model's
approach can result in situations where men are forced to prove their
innocence, while women's accusations are taken at face value without substantial
evidence.
Dutton
(2006) argues that "the model's gendered perspective can lead to a lack of
due process for accused men, who may be presumed guilty based on the model's
assumptions rather than actual evidence." This perspective can
significantly impact how domestic violence cases are handled, potentially
leading to biased outcomes that do not accurately reflect the complexities of
each, and individual cases.
Impact
on Training and Professional Practice
The
Duluth Model is widely implemented through training programs for law
enforcement Police officers, judicial personnel, and social service
departments, including childrens social services. These programs are designed
to educate professionals on recognising the signs of power and control dynamics
in abusive relationships, prioritising victim safety, and ensuring offender
accountability. Training typically includes workshops, role-playing scenarios,
and case studies, all of which emphasise the model's core principles (Pence
& Shepard, 1999).
Agencies
involved in implementing the Duluth Model include countrywide Police
authorities, domestic violence shelters, and social services including
childrens social services. These agencies work together to provide a
coordinated community response to domestic violence, with the aim of protecting
victims and holding perpetrators accountable. However, the model's gendered
approach can sometimes result in skewed perceptions and responses to domestic
violence incidents, particularly those involving male victims or female
perpetrators (Corvo, Dutton, & Chen, 2008).
Implications
for Family Court Outcomes
Custody
Decisions and Evidentiary Standard
The
Duluth Model's principles can significantly influence family court outcomes,
especially in custody disputes. Judges and child protection workers trained in
the model may be more inclined to believe the mother's claims of abuse,
potentially leading to custody decisions that favor the mother based on
allegations alone. This can and often disadvantage fathers who are accused of
abuse and may not have the opportunity, means and resources to adequately
defend themselves (Corvo et al., 2008).
The
model's emphasis on believing victims often lower the evidentiary standards
required to prove allegations of abuse. In some cases, accusations alone may
suffice to impact court decisions, which can result in unfair treatment of
accused individuals who lack the means to provide a robust defense (Dutton
& Corvo, 2006).
Societal
Implications
Homelessness
and Mental Health
The
societal implications of the Duluth Model extend to issues such as male
homelessness and mental health. Men accused of domestic violence or abuse, who
subsequently lose access to their homes, families, and children may experience
significant psychological and financial stress. This often contributes to
increased rates of homelessness, depression, and suicidal tendencies among
accused men though very rarely if at all, addressed or spoken about in the
public spear (Hines & Douglas, 2010).
Bias
in Addressing Gender-Based Violence
The
Duluth Model's focus on addressing misogyny and protecting female victims has
been criticised for not adequately addressing the issue of misandry. By
predominantly framing domestic violence and domestic abuse as a
male-perpetrated issue, the model may inadvertently marginalises male victims
and obscure the reality of female-perpetrated violence. This can create a
societal bias that fails to recognise and address the full spectrum of domestic
violence and domestic abuse, ultimately hindering the development of more
inclusive and effective intervention strategies (Corvo et al., 2008).
Conclusion
The
Duluth Model has significantly shaped domestic violence intervention strategies
by emphasising the need to protect victims as women and not men, and does not
hold women perpetrators accountable. As a result, its gendered framework and
the presumption of male guilt have sparked significant controversy not just in
theory but in practice. The model's implementation in family courts and its
broader societal implications highlights the need for a more balanced approach,
that acknowledges all forms of domestic violence and domestic abuse, ensuring
fairness for both accused individuals and victims, for both men and
women.
Put simply,
manipulation happens when we focus on the effects, and not to unlock the cause
of the effects. By creating an imbalanced strategical system such as the Duluth
model, and adopting it into a society where the people as a whole who it will
affect in all future judicial outcomes, are unaware of the intricate
principles, is arguably underhanded, and actually undermines the plate for women's
safety of which is a million miles from the the intention of Fatherless
Britain, but to address the issues in order to create a safer society for our
daughters.
The fact
that Norfolk County Council is still using the Duluth wheel
model, all be it their own version, and on the date of writing this article
there is a direct link to the Duluth Model website showing their affiliation to
the Duluth Model. This fact shows the influence the Duluth Wheel Model has had,
and is still has in creating the false narrative of one-way domestic abuse,
with a clear bias against half of the population. That being, your
brother's, your son's, your uncle's, and your father's. Yet next week, we'll
all be hypercritically celebrating what now appears to be a farce of Father's
day.

Alienating good innocent men by making them endure the repercussions of the behaviour's and actions of a few bad individuals, is counterproductive and unjust. This approach does not address the true causes or issues related to gender-based violence and inequality. Instead, it fosters division between men and women, and undermines genuine efforts to address and resolve these issues. A more effective strategy would involve focusing on the actual perpetrators of harmful behaviour's, while fostering a collaboration and understanding between genders to create a more equitable society.
