Stop Domestic Violence!
by Madison Watts
What is Domestic Violence?
Domestic Violence is continuous acts of agressive and controlling behaviors. These behaviors include physical, sexual, and psychological attacks within a relationship. The relationship may be a current spouse, a former spouse, a family member, a child, parents of a child in common, intimate partners of the same gender, dating relationships, and people offering housing. Regardless of the relationship, domestic violence continues to be the most under-reported crime in the United States!
