Domestic Violence
Hello
everyone. My name is Sayo and I’m 14 years old. Don’t judge me by my age
though; I have a small age but a big mind! This post is about domestic
violence. I know its short, but its informative. I hope you learn something
from it today and if you have any comments, don’t be afraid to say what you
think below.😁
What is it?
According
to acesdv.org, domestic violence is any behavior where the purpose is to gain
power and control over a spouse, partner, girl/boyfriend, or intimate family
member. Domestic violence has claimed many lives. Despite that, many people
still don’t know the dangers of it. Some don’t even know it’s wrong! We all
need to create awareness so that this horrible act committed by people who
claim to love those who their hurting, stops.
How can it be helped?
There are
many centers that are
set up to help those who are abused, men and women, and people who commit
domestic abuse are punished if caught. However, many people who are being
abused don’t speak out because of fear. They are scared to get into any more
trouble with the partner, or even believe that the partner still loves them!
The main problem isn’t finding centers for these people to get back on track. It’s
getting them to speak up so that they can be helped, and the abuser can be put
behind bars where they belong.
Awareness
also must be spread. Many people are brought up with the idea that being
domestically abused is right! Some even say they wouldn’t marry someone who
doesn’t abuse them because it means they don’t love them. This is terrible. It
often happens because of one parent being abused and telling their child that
that’s the way things are meant to be. We need to stop this spread of false
information and start telling people that this act is wrong, and extremely
dangerous. If we don’t, more and more people will die from domestic abuse.
Let’s work
together to end this problem and save lives before its too late. Stay safe and STOP
NORMALIZING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!!!!
