What are the causes of domestic violence and what can be done to curb it

[Tozi]

Domestic violence has become a common phenomenon.Many people have big problems in their family.People often do a lot of bad things in the family.Often women and children suffer violence.Today there are many such organizations against domestic violence.Many people can't say that they suffer various forms of violence.I do not think that nobody deserved to suffer any form of violence, because we are all living beings, we need to help each other.Because today it's important to be a man.

[Hitch-hiker]

It's glossed over quite often but women commit domestic violence crimes just as often as men. It's just that men suffer in silence & if they do speak up no-one gives a fuck. In many places if a man calls police after a domestic violence incident committed against him the police will come and arrest the man. When it goes to court women are likely to get off scott free or receive much lesser sentences/fines. The legal system protects women and punishes men.

What are causes of domestic violence?

Mental illness (in many different forms), jealousy, greed, immaturity and lack of respect for our fellow humans. Mix drugs and alcohol in with all that and anything can happen.

Domestic violence is a system of one person's behavior aimed at preserving power and control over another person. Conflicts and disputes arise in any relationship. It is important to distinguish between domestic violence and conflict. A dispute can develop into domestic violence if in a conflict situation the partners participate not on an equal footing, if your partner resorts to violent methods, trying to control and control your actions and feelings.

Domestic violence (also named domestic abuse or family violence) is violence or other abuse by one person against another in a domestic setting, such as in marriage or cohabitation. It may be termed intimate partner violence when committed by a spouse or partner in an intimate relationship against the other spouse or partner, and can take place in heterosexual or same-sex relationships, or between former spouses or partners. Domestic violence can also involve violence against children, parents, or the elderly, and may be done for self-defense. It takes a number of forms, including physical, verbal, emotional, economic, religious, reproductive, and sexual abuse, which can range from subtle, coercive forms to marital rape and to violent physical abuse such as choking, beating, female genital mutilation, and acid throwing that results in disfigurement or death. Domestic murders include stoning, bride burning, honor killings, and dowry deaths

Domestic violence occurs when the abuser believes that abuse is an entitlement, acceptable, justified, or unlikely to be reported. It may produce intergenerational cycles of abuse in children and other family members, who may feel that such violence is acceptable or condoned. Very few people recognize themselves as abusers or victims because they may consider their experiences as family conflicts that got out of control.[10] Awareness, perception, definition and documentation of domestic violence differs widely from country to country. Domestic violence often happens in the context of forced or child marriage.

Domestic abuse often escalates from threats and verbal abuse to violence. And while physical injury may be the most obvious danger, the emotional and psychological consequences of domestic abuse are also severe. Emotionally abusive relationships can destroy your self-worth, lead to anxiety and depression, and make you feel helpless and alone. No one should have to endure this kind of pain—and your first step to breaking free is recognizing that your situation is abusive. Once you acknowledge the reality of the abusive situation, you can get the help you need

Physical abuse is the use of physical force against someone in a way that injures or endangers that person. Physical assault or battering is a crime, whether it occurs inside or outside of the family. The police have the power and authority to protect you from physical attack.

Any situation in which you are forced to participate in unwanted, unsafe, or degrading sexual activity is sexual abuse. Forced sex, even by a spouse or intimate partner with whom you also have consensual sex, is an act of aggression and domestic violence. Furthermore, people whose partners abuse them physically and sexually are at a higher risk of being seriously injured or killed.

Abusive behavior is the abuser’s choice
Despite what many people believe, domestic violence and abuse is not due to the abuser’s loss of control over their behavior. In fact, abusive behavior and violence is a deliberate choice made by the abuser in order to control you. Abusers use a variety of tactics to manipulate you and exert their power, including:

Dominance – Abusive individuals need to feel in charge of the relationship. They will make decisions for you and the family, tell you what to do, and expect you to obey without question. Your abuser may treat you like a servant, child, or even as their possession.

Humiliation – An abuser will do everything they can to make you feel bad about yourself or defective in some way. After all, if you believe you're worthless and that no one else will want you, you're less likely to leave. Insults, name-calling, shaming, and public put-downs are all weapons of abuse designed to erode your self-esteem and make you feel powerless.

Isolation – In order to increase your dependence on them, an abusive partner will cut you off from the outside world. They may keep you from seeing family or friends, or even prevent you from going to work or school. You may have to ask permission to do anything, go anywhere, or see anyone.

Threats – Abusers commonly use threats to keep their partners from leaving or to scare them into dropping charges. Your abuser may threaten to hurt or kill you, your children, other family members, or even pets. They may also threaten to commit suicide, file false charges against you, or report you to child services.

Intimidation – Your abuser may use a variety of intimidation tactics designed to scare you into submission. Such tactics include making threatening looks or gestures, smashing things in front of you, destroying property, hurting your pets, or putting weapons on display. The clear message is that if you don't obey, there will be violent consequences.

Denial and blame – Abusers are very good at making excuses for the inexcusable. They will blame their abusive and violent behavior on a bad childhood, a bad day, or even on you and the kids, the victims of their abuse. Your abusive partner may minimize the abuse or deny that it occurred. They will commonly shift the responsibility on to you: Somehow, their violent and abusive behavior is your fault.

a reward and punishment system to get the young to do what the old want

[cryptothief]

There seems to be many sources that point to environment playing a huge part in influencing future abusers, although nothing is ever as clear-cut as that. Social surroundings, economic stability, drug and/or alcohol addictions, combinations of all the above. Many factors play a part in both 'creating' abusers and victims, and although there are certain sectors of society that are theoretically more susceptible, it can crop up in all walks of life. One way to at least try and prevent it is to ensure that you stay in touch with friends and family on a regular basis, preferably face to face. That's my (unprofessional) opinion anyway.

[mamacitosi]

We cannot blame them if they do violence specially in their family, they committed said offense because they have their own reason behind that violence, but for those person who do not know yet that their is a special law made by the government here in our country, the violence against women and childrens act of R.A 9262, surely you will be apprehended by the police and put you in jail.

[marimao]

Many abusive people, they don't think first the corresponding punishment of the violence they committed, many family was broken because of unruly behavior, childrens are crying because they feel afraid of the incident done by their own father.
And the worst thing that when the said father put in jail because of the crime committed, and day after the wife will asked to the police officer that she wants to free her husband, because said father is alone provider of their children,

What are the causes of domestic violence and what can be done to curb it

Domestic violence is rooted from the background of the person who perform the physical abuse. It is how he was raise as a child and his experiences. Most likely,  these people have experience the same when they are young. They have suffered physical abuse by their parents,  relatives and other people and those who are tortured during military training. These people should undergo counselling and medical help to avoid occuring of the same problem. Some other cause are drug addiction. People under the influence of drugs are violent and harmful.

[Chusnul]

Cause of Domestic Violence is not Islam but instead the cause of Domestic violence is not following Islamic Teachings. This is something which is changing rapidly. Years ago it was always assumed that the male was the aggressor. Now we know there are as many female aggressors as there are men. Continuing education for police officers it the key to make them realize that women can be just as violent as men and often are. In my experience I have come across many woman domestic violence abusers who feel entitled to hit their husband or significant other as they believe the police will automatically blame the male.This could not be further from the truth. The modern officer knows this and an arrest for domestic abuse will be made if a woman strikes a man. I have seen a lot of this and have arrested a lot of women for domestic abuse and domestic battery. The tide is changing quickly and if there is evidence to support the man's complaint the woman will be arrested. Education of officers is the key.

Trully working overseas is such convincing because of the high rate salaries but at the same time life risking, but this days domestic violences are increasing maybe because they are not satisfied of the output, to reduce or to totally wiped this things maybe the government should do so extra work like background checking of the employees, employers and the one whom they will be assign, drug test and psychiatric exams should do, so that there will be no conflict between contries and all can be relief.

What are the causes of domestic violence and what can be done to curb it

domestic violence is a phenomenon that I find inappropriate. This phenomenon of domestic violence is the result of a lack of financial prosperity and the consequences of an affair. The victims are children from families affected by trauma to broken home

[joebrook]

Domestic violence has become a socially aggravating social problem that has serious consequences that are primarily a violation of human rights, honor, dignity and the lives of individuals, especially women, children.

The ladies who are going through domestic violence in the hands of their partners should make sure that they report to the necessary authorities when it comes to that regards. By doing that it those abusive people will stop doing that.

I agree with you in this. It all starts with the family. Family lack the moral support to their children which causes the children to be rebellious. Family is the basic unit of society so i believe it comes from family. Even if the surroundings are bad influences if children are well built in the family they will not adapt to their environment.

[Rizqi]

the causes are numerous, including drinking too many drinks containing alcohol so the brain can not control the body and end up making domestic violence, and my advice to reduce alcoholic beverages
