Gaining Knowledge From A Good Book On Domestic Violence

By Teri Farley


There is no doubt that most people want to be in a loving and caring relationship. For some this will happen, and for others it will not. There is a good percentage of those who do find their dream relationship only to later find out that they are in an abusive relationship. Even though it may sound weird to some people, these victims sometimes do not find out until they read a book on domestic violence.

There are many good books on the subject that can educate people on what domestic violence really is. Most people think that a person has to be crazy not to recognize abuse. They figure that if a person is getting beat on, they are being abused, and if they are not being touched then they are alright.

The laws have a different definition of abuse than what most people think of. According to the law, a person does not have to physically touch another person to be recognized as an abuser. A person can be an abuser by emotionally abusing their partner. This is usually done by words that will affect a person's personality.

It really surprises people how much they learn after reading one of these books.
