Spanish term or phrase: malas prácticas de convivencia en el hogar
Según niñas/os de 6 a10 años, se evidencia que están siendo objetos de malas prácticas de convivencia en el hogar, ya que padecen de violencia intrafamiliar, lo que repercute en años físicos y psicológicos desde muy pequeños.
Así también, reflejaron que en la relación de parejas las niñas/os expresan que generalmente quienes propician la violencia son los padres.

Tratando de no rayar en lo literal, podría traducirse como : incorrect practices of coexistence at home.

domestic abuse (see below)


Explanation:
or "family violence." This seems to be the generic term which is then subdivided into individual subcategories: spousal abuse, child abuse, etc.

Example sentence(s):
  • "Domestic violence can take many forms..."
  • "... exposing children to Family Violence is child abuse..."

harmful behaviour within the family environment


Explanation:
They are being subjected to harmful behaviour within the family environment, they are already suffering from domestic violence...

That seems to me to be what the author intends to say
