I’ve never been in a relationship where I was being abused and I hope I never encounter that problem. Many times too often we know and hear of mostly Women who are involved with men who abuse them and because of numerous problems they remain in the relationship. How can a man love you and yet he bruises your skin and calls you names.
We always ask, how can she remain in that situation? Many times these women are not employed, have children or have no friend or family they can turn to for help and support. Sometimes they are too intimidated by their spouse to even ask for help because they fear his wrath. I’ve seen women stay in abusive relationships because they know that they are unable to financially support their kids, but then we ask how can you allow your kids to grow up in such an environment. Many of these children grow up to be abusive themselves too. It’s something they cannot escape when they have grown up in a home and seen time and time again their father beating their mother’s senseless for his own fauls or for silly issues.
How can we end this trend? Can we ever end this trend? What kind of support is offered to mother’s in such situations? What kind of protection are they guaranteed?
I think that being an abusive person mentally, emotionally or physically me be because of some problems growing up as a child, financial strains, sexual problems and many more reasons I don’t know.
What are your views on this issue that is vastly dominating our world?
