This presentation will review and illustrate the effects of domestic violence on children. Recent research has shown a connection between childhood maltreatment, family violence, and trauma. Exposure to intimate partner violence and child abuse presents serious risks to the psychological, social, and neurobiological development that the trauma they have experienced disrupts. We will consider brain effects of stress and trauma and behavioral manifestations of such trauma from the adverse childhood experiences. Therefore, this presentation discusses the various types of multiple victimization experienced by children in their homes or communities that often leads to later aggressive, impulsive, and bullying behavior, as well as possible revictimization due to the interaction of the brain and psychosocial factors. Understanding these effects provide a framework from which to understand the implications of decisions and practice involving such children.
