| Samenvatting | The author argues that where the state alleges failure to protect against a battered mother, the appropriate standard must particularize and account for the violence. Morover, she argues that culture structures relationships within the family and measures appropriate maternal behavior according to a generalized standard. To particularize the violence, deconstruct the normative process and reconstruct the materiality of battered mothers' lives, the appropriate standard is a reasonable battered mother test (RBMT). |
