["Journal of Investigative Psychology and Offender Profiling, Volume 23, Issue 2, June 2026. ", "\nABSTRACT\nThis research analyses the legal and emotional tension that emerges when the measure of prohibition of approach is applied in cases of child‐to‐parent violence (CPV). Through a bibliographic review and a qualitative case‐study analysis, the paradox between the protection of victimised parents and the preservation of the family bond is examined. The results show that this measure generates significant difficulties: therapeutic paralysis by making joint family intervention impossible, uprooting of the minor, and the risk of a rebound effect after reunification. A clash is also identified with the fundamental right to the re‐education and social reintegration of the offending minor. The study concludes that there is a need for a more flexible judicial approach that integrates restorative alternatives and psychosocial support, ensuring effective protection of victims without sacrificing the reconstruction of the family unit.\n"]
