DEFINITION OF CAPA: How do we define this behaviour?

The Capa Podcast - Understanding Child Against Parent Aggression, from Capa First Response CIC

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 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.
