Domestic Abuse (anyone who lives together or is in a romantic relationship, including roommates or family members)?
While this website is specifically targeted to gay men, it is very detailed, and useful for straight couples as well.? Domestic Violence Handbook (though it does concern me how much this focuses on women as victims and men as abusers, when it's often the other way around, or mutual)? video on abuse and jealousy by an abuser to one's spouse, family?
Starting in November 2010, Dr. Phil has been doing a season on domestic violence; lots of good stuff is here, so spend time going through the links and shows. ?Though I wish he'd look at the other side of abuse: women against men.?
"Do not let victims assume the blame, and do not make excuses for the abuser?s behavior such as stress, unemployment, alcoholism, etc. There is no excuse for abuse."?
Women erroneously think that a dangerous man is only a violent man. While the violent man is indeed one of the categories of dangerous men, there are seven others that are often overlooked. These omitted categories are exactly how women get into dangerous relationships. These lapses in information leave women without the knowledge to respond to the face of dangerousness when he is in their life. Since much of the information about ?what? makes a man dangerous has not been taught to women, they do not recognize and respond to dangerousness. ??
"The abusers blame the victim for causing the abuse. For example, the abuser would say to the victim, 'If you cleaned up more, I wouldn?t call you names'" (Zimbio.com, Love Shouldn't Hurt).?
Neither the man, nor (still less) the woman, possesses absolute power over the other partner in the marriage. Coercion exercised over the will of another--even in the name of love--kills love itself. And so the question arises: must one submit to coercion if it threatens that which is most precious? A countless number of unhappy marriages result from precisely this--that each partner considers him or herself as the owner of the loved one. This is the cause of nearly all the difficulties of married life. The highest wisdom in marriage is shown by giving full freedom to the person you love: for our human marriage is the counterpart of the marriage in heaven between Christ and the Church, where there is absolute freedom. ?
