You're asking for an evolution in homo sapiens that might never come Lisa.
Laws don't seem to do much good.
I reckon they should stop calling it DOMESTIC violence.. there is nothing DOMESTIC about it..
calling it domestic softens it IMO.. its FAMILY VIOLENCE FAMILY AGGRESSION it affect more than just one person who is receiving it...its getting worse and all we do is look for somethin g to BLAME it on... dont buy that.. it is the excuses that allows people to think.. well I really didnt bash her the booze did it or my sick childhood did it...
we have basically taken every responsibility away from each person... everyone has an excuse today for doing what they do...
throw the book at them THERE IS NO EXCUSE...simple as that...
as it is the victim is more at fault these days..." why didnt she leave before he did this."..????????..its her fault she shouldnt have stayed... yeah right..
my mum was in a not good marriage but as she said. it was her work that made the home she put everything into it why should she leave....
there should never be any excuse for VIOLENCE I dont care if she is the biggest nagger in the world...no excuses.
Cods, your post reminded me of something.
Did you know that if someone assaults you/disables you etc you can apply for compensation as a victim?
If the perperator is or was in any form of a domestic relationship...you can apply too!
