  • The Challenge of Protecting Boys from Sexual Abuse
    Improving Community Safety Lessons from the country and the city Jupiters Hotel Townsville, Queensland, Australia 18-19 October 2007 CONFERENCE PAPER: THE CHALLENGE OF PROTECTING BOYS FROM SEXUAL ABUSE Emeritus Professor Freda Briggs AO Child Development University of South Australia, Magill Campus http://www.aic.gov.au/conferences/2007-RegionalComSafety/index.html The Challenge of Protecting Boys from Sexual Abuse Emeritus Professor Freda Briggs AO Child Development; University of South Australia, Magill Campus Introduction It is widely believed that one in three Australian girls and one in from five to ten boys are sexually abused before they leave school. Using Australian and international research findings, this paper will show that the vulnerability and victimization of boys is substantially under-recognised and under-reported, that boys have been disadvantaged by child sexual abuse being regarded as a feminist issue and that child protection curriculum has not yet been developed to meet the special needs of boys. Child sex abuse – a feminist issue The problem of child sex abuse was brought to public notice by American feminists in the late 1970’s. Australian women followed their example in the early 80’s. Rape Crisis Centres received government funding to provide services for female victims. Some centres held well-publicised state-wide phone-ins that revealed the myth of the dangerous stranger and the fact that the greatest risk to girls was the trusted male in the home environment. Adelaide Rape Crisis Centre had a notice on the door that said, “No males may enter this building”, strengthening the belief that only females were victims and offenders were males.

  • International Women's Day Children's Safety Luncheon
    MEDIA RELEASE International Women’s Day Event to Address Children’s Safety 16 January 2015 In recognition of the strong connection between women's and children's rights, Brisbane-based charity, Children's Safety Australia Inc. is hosting an International Women's Day Luncheon with a focus on practical strategies to promote children's safety. Speakers include internationally renowned children's rights campaigner Professor Freda Briggs and accomplished author Tess Rowley. As highlighted in United Nations report, Women’s and Children’s Rights: Making the Connection, the lives of women and children are tightly knit, as are their rights. Advocating for women’s rights has been essential to advancing the situation of women worldwide. The same holds true for the promotion of children’s rights and improvements in their ability to survive and thrive. However, if the rights of women and children are considered together, they can reinforce each other and make mutually supportive demands on society. Children’s Safety Australia Director and Founder Kim Jackson said, “The event will see internationally renowned children’s safety experts address emerging trends, such as children who abuse other children. Practical strategies to keep children safe, including how to build their self esteem and resilience, will also be discussed.” Ms Jackson said, “This luncheon presents a valuable professional development opportunity for police, social workers, educators, youth workers, chaplains, guidance officers, parents, carers, grandparents and anyone with an interest in keeping children safe. Costs have been kept as low as possible to allow optimal attendance. ” VENUE: Pullman Brisbane King George Square DATE: Monday, 9 March 2015 TIME: 9.30am (for a 10.00am start) – 2.00pm COST: $60 (includes light morning tea and hot buffet lunch) BOOKINGS: http://www.trybooking.com/GRXD FURTHER INFORMATION: Kim Jackson via e: [email protected] or m: 0423 532 868 About the speakers… Keynote Speaker: Freda Briggs AO Professor Freda Briggs is Australia's best-known expert on child protection.

  • Locating Child Protection in Preservice Teacher Education
    Australian Journal of Teacher Education Locating child protection in preservice teacher education Kerryann Walsh Louise Laskey Elspeth McInnes Ann Farrell Ben Mathews Freda Briggs [email protected] Abstract:A recent report delivered by the Australian Centre for Child Protection has highlighted the need for empirical evidence of effective pedagogies for supporting teaching and learning of child protection content in Australian teacher education programs (Arnold & Maio-Taddeo, 2007). This paper advances this call by presenting case study accounts of different approaches to teaching child protection content in University-based teacher education programs across three Australian States. These different cases provide a basis for understanding existing strategies as an important precursor to improving practice. Although preschool, primary and secondary schools have been involved in efforts to protect children from abuse and neglect since the 1970s, teacher education programs, including preservice and inservice programs, have been slow to align their work with child protection agendas. This paper opens a long-overdue discussion about the extent and nature of child protection content in teacher education and proposes strategies for translating research into practice. Introduction This paper advances calls for further empirical evidence of pedagogies to support effective teaching and learning of child protection content in Australian teacher education programs. It follows a recent landmark study of 33 Australian universities conducted by the Federally-funded Australian Centre for Child Protection (Arnold & Maio-Taddeo, 2007). The study revealed that over three-quarters of Australian teacher education programs did not include any discrete child protection content and, of the one-quarter that did, the majority allocated it less than seven hours across the entire course.

  • 1 the Changing Family Freda Briggs CHILDREN and FAMILIES the CHANGING FAMILY
    1 The changing family Freda Briggs CHILDREN AND FAMILIES THE CHANGING FAMILY Family life is now very different from family life experienced by Australian children ten or twenty years ago. First, the roles and expectations of women have changed. With high levels of male unemployment and divorce rates bordering on 40 per cent for first marriages and 50 per cent for second marriages, wives can no longer rely on their husbands to support them. More women expect to maintain their careers or return to study after childbirth. Mothers demand and achieve greater independence at a time when men have neither been conditioned nor trained to replace them as primary care givers. This has led to increased demands for child-care provision and, simultaneously, fears that children are being starved of parents’ attention. University of New England researcher Gurjeet Gill (1993) found that two-income families spend their weekends catching up on housework and have no time for fun. Other Australian, American and British studies confirm that when mothers work outside the home, couples retain their traditional roles and mothers with full- time jobs remain responsible for shopping, cooking, household tasks, taking children to and from school and caring for them when sick. Skolnick (1991) commented that, ‘In the majority of couples, women whose lives are very different from their mothers find themselves living with men who are only slightly different from their fathers. Not surprisingly, these men are more likely to be satisfied with marriage than their wives and, failing to pick up cues relating to their wives’ emotional needs, they are often taken by surprise when the women want a divorce.’ Family patterns have changed considerably over the last twenty 1 2 CHILDREN AND FAMILIES years.
