The South African government introduced a strict lockdown and related legislation in reaction to the COVID-19 epidemic. During lockdown, the movement of children between co-holders of parental rights and responsibilities of a caregiver, as defined in section 1(1) of the Children's Act 38 of 2005, was prohibited. The movement of persons was only permitted in essential cases, leading to children being "stuck" with one co-holder or even a person with no parental responsibilities and rights. A court order was to be obtained for permission for a child to travel, proving that this was urgent and essential. The lockdown regulations on the movement of children covered only those in a formal arrangement and excluded co-parents without court orders and those in the process of divorce. The closure of schools for approximately three months resulted in a significant increase in inter-parental disputes. These conflicts primarily revolved around the regulations stipulating that children could only be relocated to households free from Covid-19. The regulations completely ignored the child's emotional needs and were so out of line with other countries in similar circumstances. The regulations were also contrary to the Constitution and Children's Act, which underscore that the best interests of the child are paramount in all matters involving the child as it was not in the child's interests to be with a particular parent or without a particular parent during the lockdown period. This paper aims to identify the issues and effects of co-parenting during the lockdown and present a critique on the circumstances. It is argued that the one-size-fits-all approach introduced by the lockdown regulations was not the most appropriate, as the determining criteria should have been based on what would be best in the child's interest, which should, therefore, be assessed based on a case-by-case analysis.

The article focuses on the crucial aspect of child protection, particularly within hospital settings, aiming to raise awareness and promote sensitivity toward child welfare issues. It provides insights into various forms of child endangerment and trauma, emphasizing the need for early detection, intervention, and multidisciplinary collaboration.

The article "From Jurisprudence in Criminal Cases" deals with two cases of suspended sentences. In the first case, despite previous probation failures, probation was granted again to the defendant, but this decision was later overturned. In the second case, probation was granted to a convicted person, but it was later revoked because the convicted person committed another crime. The payments already made to the Child Protection Association were credited towards the prison sentence, and the convicted person objected to the amount of credit. The court decides on a case-by-case basis regarding the credit scale and agrees with the Higher Regional Court of Braunschweig that the payments should be converted into the equivalent of community service.

The amendment to the Austrian Placement Act (UbG) expands the law to consider the needs of minors. Special provisions concern voluntary placement and the consultation of the child and youth welfare agency. The aim is to ensure the flow of information to child and youth welfare and to consider the needs of minors. A crisis intervention team can be deployed in families or residential communities to resolve tensions and find alternative accommodation options. Minors have full legal capacity from the age of 14, and the court can consult child and youth welfare to clarify support needs. Judicial control is required before medical treatments of minors, unless there is an immediate danger to life, health, or severe pain. Typical restrictions for minors in hospitals must be documented and communicated to the legal guardians within 72 hours. The collaboration between psychiatric departments and schools or kindergartens is emphasized to ensure appropriate care after discharge from the hospital. [Extracted from the article]

Working with child protection cases is particularly characterised by the need for a successful professional relationship. Childhood maltreatment, which the children and adolescents experience (sometimes chronically), can contribute to mentalization impairments and epistemic mistrust, which can show up in the encounter in the fact that it is difficult for them to build a working alliance. Based on an explorative interview with a female expert, this article investigates the significance of mentalization processes in the work with child protection cases. The results show that the significance of mentalizing can be classified on the levels of affectivity, cognition and actionality and that the processes represent work on the horizontal dimension of the unconscious. The results also make clear that the already problematised conceptual discrimination between mentalization-based and psychoanalytic pedagogy is reproduced. This leads to a desideratum on the question of boundary and overlap in theory and practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Against the background of 30 years of discussion in medicine and law about unfounded accusations and the existence of reasonable suspicion of intra-family violence in contact and custody proceedings, this article emphasises the importance of focusing on child protection by all professionals.Based on a case report in connection with the Federal Ministry of Justice's handout "Dealing with violence in custody and contact proceedings", the article describes the relevance of child protection in Austrian case law and the means by which it is undermined. In the name of science, ideological diagnoses are used instead of evidence-based treatment diagnoses [1]. "Professionals from the healthcare system, youth welfare, justice and education should cooperate in child protection with the aim of recognising, identifying and ending child abuse, maltreatment and/or neglect as such (cf. § 3 KKG) [2]."In legal practice, however, practitioners in the psychosocial, psychosomatic and psychotherapeutic fields are often not recognised as witnesses because of the assumption they are influenced by parents or patients themselves. In Austria, the evaluation of evidence is the responsibility of the judge and it is often assumed that practitioners cannot take an objective position towards their patients and their relatives. Specialist medical or psychological experts are therefore of crucial importance. When taking their oath, they have committed themselves to objectivity and impartiality in the recording of findings and orientation towards scientific principles and standards ("state of the art") and their application, as well as to continuous further training and education in the preparation of expert opinions [3].The specific case in question is a child with a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder following suspected sexualised violence, enuresis and enkopresis in connection with the traumatic experiences.The connection between violent situations and child and adolescent psychiatric disorders and the course of the custody and contact proceedings are described. Relevant legal interests such as the will of the child, the best interests of the child, attachment tolerance and protection against violence are addressed and put up for discussion. Topics such as domestic, psychological, sexualised, institutional violence and intimate terror are presented.The case report is an example of how child psychiatrists deal with points relevant to the Federal Ministry of Justice's handbook "Dealing with violence in custody and contact proceedings", which was published in January 2024. It represents a guideline for the area of court proceedings, assessment and treatment., (© 2024.

Background: Recent studies show the high prevalence of child maltreatment in Germany and that assaults by hospital staff also pose a problem. Since 2020, the Joint Federal Committee has been calling for institutional safeguarding measures (ISM) to protect and support those affected in hospitals. The aim of this study is to analyze the level of knowledge and action competencies regarding child maltreatment among hospital staff and the extent to which ISM are implemented in hospitals., Methods: A survey was administered to 1011 participants before they took part in two online courses on child protection and protection measures in hospitals, with questions regarding self-assessed level of knowledge and competence on child protection and the occurrence of cases of maltreatment and protective measures in their own institution. Data were analyzed using descriptive methods., Results: It becomes apparent that the knowledge and competencies of hospital staff regarding child protection are in the middle range. In hospitals, cases of maltreatment that occur outside the institution are particularly common, but violence by staff or other patients of the same age also plays a significant role. Of the respondents, 93.6% stated that their institution had already developed at least one element of an ISM, but only 1.0% of respondents reported that all the elements surveyed had already been fully developed., Discussion: Hospitals in Germany seem to be largely on the path to better protect children and adolescents from maltreatment and to support those affected. However, there are still deficits in the competencies of employees and the implementation of the ISM elements. More resources need to be made available by hospital operators and the public sector for this purpose., (© 2024. The Author(s).)
