Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior used by one person to gain or maintain control over another within an intimate or family relationship. It can take many forms, including physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or financial abuse. Victims of domestic violence may feel isolated, fearful, and trapped, often facing threats or manipulation that prevent them from leaving the abusive situation. Domestic violence affects individuals of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, and its impact can be long-lasting, especially on children who witness it. Support from trusted individuals, access to safe shelters, counseling, and legal protection are crucial steps in helping survivors heal and rebuild their lives.
