Content Summary:
Sexual abuse involving siblings is likely to be the most common form of intra-familial sexual abuse. Sibling relationships can be complex and often the most enduring relationships we have. In the context of abuse, the characteristics of the sibling relationship and family environment can enable such behaviours to occur regularly and unchecked.
This workshop focuses on understanding the unique safeguarding concerns, challenges and implications for the family. Attendees will learn about the nature of sexual behaviours between siblings and the significant and complex short and long term impact on both children’s development and family functioning. The needs and adequate responses of families will be considered as well as what different kinds of support family members may need to make sense of the behaviour and to move forward in a positive way.
