Let's start calling family violence 'terrorism' and then maybe we will start to see that investment of funding applied to where it needs to be.

What we want is to make sure that people don't go through what I'm going through ... and we have to understand that even since Luke's death, children have been killed.

Family violence is an entrenched epidemic that we've lived with since time began, so we've got a long way to go. But I do believe the tide is turned. It's no longer a subject that only occurs behind closed doors

This is about saving children's lives. It is not about agencies and services protecting themselves.

What I want people to take from this is that it isn't simple. People judge you, people tell you what you should do. You do the best you can.

Luke was a little boy in a growing body that felt pain and sadness and fear for his mum, and he always believed he would be safe with his dad.

I want to tell people that family violence happens to anybody, no matter how nice your house is, no matter how intelligent you are.
