(b) the court is satisfied, on the balance of probabilities, that a child has been subjected to family violence committed by the accused.
(2) Subject to subsection (3), the court must—
(a) if the child's need for protection is substantially the same as that of the family member to be protected by the interim order, include the child in the interim order as a protected person; or
(b) in any other case, make a separate interim order for the child as a protected person.
