青少年对父母的暴力行为在警务、青年司法和家庭暴力政策中几乎没有出现，尽管这些领域的从业人员普遍认识到这一点。这是研究不足，很少出现在犯罪学讨论的家庭或青年暴力。本文介绍了英国第一次分析青少年向警方报告的父母暴力案件。我们分析了2009-2010年向伦敦警察厅报告的1892起案件的受害者、罪犯和事件特征，其中大部分涉及对人身的暴力或家庭中的刑事损害。我们的调查结果显示，青少年对父母的暴力是一种性别现象：87%的嫌疑人是男性，77%的受害者是女性。我们认为，如果犯罪学要对各种形式的家庭暴力有一个透彻的了解，那么必须解决犯罪学话语中没有青少年对父母暴力的问题。
Adolescent to parent violence is virtually absent from policing, youth justice and domestic violence policy, despite being widely recognized by practitioners in those fields. It is under-researched and rarely appears in criminological discussions of family or youth violence. This article presents the first UK analysis of cases of adolescent to parent violence reported to the police. We analyse victim, offender and incident characteristics from 1892 cases reported to the Metropolitan Police in 2009-2010, most of which involved violence against the person or criminal damage in the home. Our findings reveal that adolescent to parent violence is a gendered phenomenon: 87 per cent of suspects were male and 77 per cent of victims were female. We argue that the absence of adolescent to parent violence from criminological discourse must be addressed if criminology is to have a thorough understanding of family violence in all its forms.
