There is a paucity of research on family adjust-
ment following child abuse disclosure including non-
Western samples. The overarching aim of the current
study was to investigate perceived family relations and
family functioning in non-offending caregivers (NOCs) of
abused children compared with parents of non-abused
children in a Filipino sample. In particular, we investigated
whether parental history of abuse and current depression
and anxiety/stress would influence NOCs’ perceptions of
parent–child relations, spousal/partner relationship satis-
faction, social support and family functioning compared to
caregivers of non-abused children. A self-report survey was
completed by 92 NOCs and 94 parents of non-abused
children from the Philippines. Results revealed that NOCs
of abused children reported poorer parent–child relations,
lower spousal/partner relationship satisfaction, greater
family disengagement and chaotic family functioning than
parents of non-abused children. Furthermore, depressed and
anxious/stressed parents (irrespective of whether their child
was abused or not) reported significant conflict and distant
child–parent relationship, as well as poorer family func-
tioning including poor communication and low family
satisfaction. Interestingly however, parental abuse history
did not have a significant interaction effect between the two
parental groups on any of the outcomes. These findings
