It is made when the Court is satisfied that family violence has been, or is likely to be committed, and that a protection order is necessary.

The PPO is granted only after a trial, unless the offender consents to the grant of the PPO. Medical reports and police reports can be helpful to obtain a PPO.

Characteristics of a Family Culture

Some things that typically make up family culture.

  • Unspoken - Families don't often discuss their culture, they just know what's expected and accepted.
  • Elder Expectations - Older generations have a high expectation that younger generations will keep the same values, customs, and overall family culture.
  • Reciprocal Relationships - All family members are held to the same standard and expected to reciprocate what's given to them or how they are treated.

These families take their cues from church or religious communities, including Christianity, Judaism, or Islam.

  • They are defined by a strong moral compass that requires all members to have a powerful sense of right and wrong as defined by their belief system.
  • Individual happiness and success is not as important as reflecting your God's purpose.
  • An example would be a traditional Arab family where grandparents are always consulted for big decisions like marriage because the Koran says the elderly are esteemed.

2. Engaged Progressive Family Culture

This type of family culture is all about personal responsibility and personal freedom.

  • Family members operate off The Golden Rule and what feels right to each person.
  • Kids from this type of family culture generally have more freedom at younger ages than other kids.
  • This type of family culture is the least religious of all four types.
  • A traditional Brazilian family could be an example of this family culture because personal values are important and people respect and expect honesty from each other.

3. Detached Family Culture

Detached families don't spend a lot of time together because they generally believe all the bad influences of the world will overshadow their influence.

  • Low income families are more likely to fall in this category.
  • This type of family culture includes a hands-off strategy to parenting and relationships where the belief is that whatever will be, will be.
  • Parents who don't keep tabs on their child's grades or school work and families that only eat together when they're watching TV are examples of detached family cultures.
