Podcast S1 Ep5: Definition & Language

Today we’re talking about HOW we describe these behaviours, the actions themselves and the words we use when talking about this area to both families and professionals. Aggression, abuse, violence, harmful… we discuss these terms and more. As an organisation we prefer to avoid using the word ‘Abuse’ even though this is typically a commonly used phrase, and we explain WHY this is. You can read our blog post about that here. 

You can find out more about us, what we do on our page for parents/families and for professionals.
