Who’s listening? Abuse from a child’s perspective Lorel Mayberry Consultant in sexuality education WA Representative on the NAPCAN Board

‘I’ve got to go now.’ Toni Childs This man I married is buried deep And the more I try to wake him, the more he sleeps I used to think I knew this man The tenderness… not the back of his hand It's been two weeks since he last had a drink But the time bombs ticking, I can never sleep It would be easier if he did Why do I stay here, stay with him? Why do you do it? Why do you treat us bad? When you've got two kids that love you And a wife that's missing you bad I've got to go now I've got to say goodbye Don't try to stop us now And please don't you cry

‘I’ve got to go now.’ Toni Childs Can't you see. We've all been through it It's all been said before With all these fears, for how many years Can I keep coming back for more?… No more Must be addicted to all this pain Cause I keep coming back for the shame Dear god give me the strength to leave I've got to keep going, keep going this time Don't try to stop us now Don't pull that stuff on me I've got the kids all packed up Harry's in the back with his pick up truck Jenny's fallen asleep again I've got to keep driving till I reach the end I can't come back here anymore

Song - Toni Childs I’ve got to go now What is the possible impact of domestic violence on the children in this video song clip? What positives can be taken from the scenario? What support was available for the man? Why was he drinking/violent/distant? What intervention/s could have prevented this from happening? Positives – eg. woman leaving the situation, being supported by family/friends, new opportunities for woman (and possibly for violent partner) and new hope for children away from abusive situation.
