How To End The Cycle Of Domestic Violence: Policies Focused On Children, Ashley Phillips May 2021

How To End The Cycle Of Domestic Violence: Policies Focused On Children, Ashley Phillips

Student Scholarship

There is an alarming amount of people who witness childhood domestic violence, and when children are exposed to domestic violence, they are subjected to a cycle of violence and trauma that exists in families for generations. However, society does not focus on trauma-exposed children to help break the cycle of domestic violence, even though child witnesses and victims become future abusers and prison inmates. This paper explains the cycle of domestic violence and its traumatic effects, examines the problems and limits of the law in respect to family intervention, and concludes with policy solutions focused on assisting children exposed to …

Parental Leave In The United States: Why The United States Should Follow France In Implementing Mandatory Paid Paternal Leave, Emily Bergmann May 2021

Parental Leave In The United States: Why The United States Should Follow France In Implementing Mandatory Paid Paternal Leave, Emily Bergmann

Child and Family Law Journal

This article addresses an issue relevant to all working parents: paid parental leave. The United States is the only industrialized nation in the world to not guarantee paid leave for parents. Substantial research and studies have documented numerous benefits correlated to paid parental leave including increased workforce participation, health benefits for both children and parents, reduced gender stereotypes, and more. Unfortunately, many fathers are stigmatized when they choose to take family leave; therefore, making leave mandatory is necessary to reduce this stigma. Current paternity leave policies in the United States will be analyzed under the FMLA, individual states, and private …

Children Are Human, Kim Pearson Apr 2021

Children Are Human, Kim Pearson

Texas A&M Law Review

There are great benefits to be had should the United States, one of the global leaders in economic strength and political power, ratify the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (“CRC”). The mystery of the United States’s ultimate reluctance to ratify the CRC, despite the nation’s central role in the drafting process, has been interrogated for years. Scholars and policy- makers have developed compelling narratives regarding obstacles to the United States’s ratification and implementation of the CRC. However well- reasoned the arguments for ratification are, there has been little progress in persuading the United States to ratify …


Equity Over Equality: Equal Protection And The Indian Child Welfare Act, Lucy Dempsey Apr 2021

Equity Over Equality: Equal Protection And The Indian Child Welfare Act, Lucy Dempsey

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

In 2018, a Texas District Court shocked the nation by declaring the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) unconstitutional pursuant to the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution. The decision was overturned by the Fifth Circuit but may well be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. The ICWA provides a framework for the removal and placement of Indian children into foster and adoptive homes in such a way that attempts to reflect the unique values of Indian culture and supports the autonomy of the tribe. In doing so, the law treats Indian children differently than it would White children. But …

Pediatric Off-Label Use Of Covid-19 Vaccines: Ethical And Legal Considerations, Elizabeth Lanphier, Shannon Fyfe Jan 2021

Pediatric Off-Label Use Of Covid-19 Vaccines: Ethical And Legal Considerations, Elizabeth Lanphier, Shannon Fyfe

Scholarly Articles

After briefly contextualizing ethical and legal precedents regarding off-label use, we offer an analysis of the ethical permissibility of and considerations for pediatric off-label Covid-19 vaccination based on individual benefits, risks, and available alternatives. Our analysis challenges the ethics of the blanket prohibition against off-label pediatric Covid-19 vaccination in the VPA, as it blocks clinicians from providing the care they may determine to be clinically and ethically appropriate for their patient. At the same time, our analysis acknowledges that Covid-19 creates population-level ethical considerations that are at times in tension with individual health interests.
