Well it goese like this...
Domestic violence is a pattern of controlling and aggressive behaviours from one adult, usually a man, towards another, usually a woman, within the context of an intimate relationship.
It can be physical, sexual, psychological or emotional abuse. Financial abuse and social isolation are also common features.
The violence and abuse can be actual or threatened and can happen once every so often or on a regular basis.
It can happen to anyone, and in all kinds of relationships - heterosexual, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. People suffer domestic violence regardless of their social group, class, age, race, disability, sexuality or lifestyle. The abuse can begin at any time - in new relationships or after many years spent together.
Children are affected by domestic violence both in the short and the long term.
less frequently still wholly unacceptable, men are abused by their partners, both male and female.
All forms of abuse - psychological, economic, emotional and physical - come from the abuser’s desire for power and control.

DV is nothing else but marital illiteracy. One of the spouses does not know how to communicate, control their emotions, and to think the right thoughts that lead to wise decisions. "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he"
For lasting solutions to DV, rush to your local library and read Chapter 6 of the "10 Steps to Success in Love and Marriage". You will never have to worry about DV again. It is all preventable. We just need more relevant education.
