Domestic Violence : How to stand against the abuse

Tweet

Nowadays there are several news items about domestic violence where women suffer abuses and torture from their husbands,partners and boyfriends.There are many celebrity cases also of domestic violence and wife beating.In India it is very common and most women refuse to stand against the torture owing to social factors like kids,family prestige and financial dependence on their husbands.I would like to know what is the situation on domestic violence in other parts of the world.How do women cope up with domestic violence? Are the laws stringent there to punish the abusers because in our country hardly anyone is punished and it is easier to go scot-free.How should woman stand up against the violence which she faces at home inside the four walls.The children are worst affected so how should they be protected? Please share your insight and we can build a perspective share with other fellow mylotters.
