Domestic Violence is a societal problem that should never be. In homes where love and tenderness should guide how we care for and treat each other, violent acts that hurt and harm those we love should be absolutely unthinkable. As unthinkable as they are, these things happen. This book is comprised of support helps for victims, survivors and secondary victims of domestic violence. It is for anyone and everyone as this is a widespread problem that touches every demographic and more people than we know. As much as we'd like to think that these things happen to other people, we all know someone that is affected by this difficult issue. Here is a collection of stories from the lives of victims of domestic violence. It is through their telling and their voices that the reality of the hurtful and difficult situations are validated. Survivors, victims and secondary victims - women, a dad and mothers of victims of abuse - tell how this difficult human problem has touched and affected their lives and the lives of those they love. Oftentimes victims of abuse feel diminished by the large and overpowering control of their abuser. No one should feel "small" and insignificant as a result of another's perception that they are "Big," even bigger than them. Help, support and the valued validation of abuse are offered and related so as to speak to any reader. These stories are shared in such a way that no uncomfortable words or scenarios are depicted so that anyone can read and learn from these experiences.
