Twelve Angry Men is a very interesting play about an unfortunate young man, who was convicted of killing his dad. The worst part was, the young man was only nineteen, and his life was just starting.

The client’s younger sister recently had an accident where she almost fell through thin ice while skating with her brother and cousin. She told her parents that Henry pushed her towards the thin ice and was laughing as the ice began to crack. As the parents questioned their son about the incident, Mark, came forward and explained that Henry had been doing things that he should not be doing. Mark accused Henry of torturing and killing a neighborhood dog, throwing a stuffed dummy off of an overpass and causing an accident, plotting to kill his younger sister, and had even threatened him if he told on Henry. The client’s mother at first did not believe that her son could at all be capable of such things and had dismissed the incidents as sibling rivalry.

I can’t see two slaps in the face provoking him into committing murder” (17).

Family violence is a multifaceted problem in Canada. In the last 20 years, the majority of the provinces and territories have created legislation to address the issue (1). As of 2011, 26% of all crime in Canada was that of family violence with the majority of the victims being female (2). The economic impact in Canada is estimated to be $7.4 billion with over 80% of that cost falling to the victim (3). While the prosecution of these crimes is high, the conviction rate remains low (4). The pathologist Sir Bernard Spilsbury stated, “Bruises are a much neglected branch of injuries” (5). Given that 71% of the reported family violence cases are physical assaults, most of these victims will have bruises of various ages (6). In such cases,

As in other forms of sexual abuse, sibling sexual abuse does not necessarily involve sexual touching. The abuser may force two or more other children to engage in sexual activity with one another. The abuser may force siblings to watch sexual activity or a pornographic video; and the abuser may abuse siblings by repeatedly watching them dress, shower or use the toilet when they don’t want to be watched.

The theory that best connects with the issue of family violence is systems theory. This theory entails that the “family as a system is thought to be best understood through the recognition that family members (as the parts of the system) interact with one another in such a manner that, over time, these interactions become patterned behavior” (Sutphin, McDonough, Schrenkel, 2013) Every family member that is within this family are characterized as subsystems. The main sub-systems are parent-parent, parent-child, and child-child.
