There are only three ways that I am aware domestic violence can end. They are: 1) The victim separates him/herself from the abuser. 2) The abuser is rehabilitated and changes his/her ways. 3) The victim dies. I know, it’s brutal, but it’s true. In my personal opinion, if the abuser is willing to seek counseling…

Be Aware When an Abusive Partner Apologizes
Right up front, let’s establish that I have a long-running reputation as “Merry Sunshine” with a pair of rose-colored glasses permanently affixed to my face. So, if you read this article and feel I whizzed in your corn flakes, please bear in mind it’s a lot like broccoli. You may not like it, but it…
Society’s View on Victims of Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence
How far have we come? I recently read an article stating a television personality “got what she deserved” when she was gang-raped. Another tweeted ridiculous comments, begrudgingly eventually apologizing – sort of. Can we say “Neanderthal?” First, it should be brought to that commentator’s attention rape is not a crime driven by lust or horniness….
The Trial is Over—Can We Get Back to Helping Victims?
I am absolutely astonished at the number of hits on my blog driven by search terms regarding Casey Anthony. It has been mind-boggling. I jumped aboard that train and rode it because of the accusations of molestation, domestic violence/abuse and well, like everyone else, just trying to get some answers and make some sense of…
Casey Anthony vs. Nancy Grace?
And the winner is — neither! While my intent is not to take a stand here for or against Casey Anthony, or expound on all the reasons I feel she might have been found guilty as charged, I am compelled to address the “coverage” given this case by Ms. Grace. It is apparent that Nancy…
Casey Anthony – What Part Did Media Play?
I could take a cheap shot and say that in this circus the media played the part of the clowns, but I won’t… well, I guess I just did. Don’t misunderstand me. That is a very general statement, and there were many who covered it with the level of decorum and professionalism we should expect…
Dealing with the Guilt of Leaving an Abusive Relationship
GUILT—What a powerful weapon when used against a victim of spouse abuse or domestic violence. It can be wielded in so many different directions. The victim must deal with the guilt of breaking up a marriage or intimate relationship, quite possibly separating a family. Children will lose time with their father. Their lifestyle will most…
Casey Anthony—What if She is Telling the Truth?
Be sure to take the poll at the end of this post. This murder trial of Casey Anthony has become quite a convoluted mess, at the very least. I tend to be known for turning the prism around and trying to see every facet I can, so here I go. Some would say I’m playing…
CAUTION! Domestic Violence: You Have Moved On – But Has He?
I applaud all women who have managed to find their way safely and sanely out of a relationship that involved domestic/intimate partner violence and moved on. BUT─Take note, and take caution. Just because you have moved on does not mean your former partner has. The average abusive partner will continue to stalk their victim for…
How Do I Know if I am a Victim of Domestic Violence?
It is puzzling for me, standing on this side of the fence now, to consider how often women question whether or not they are experiencing domestic violence. The far too common thought is, “Well, I must not be a victim of domestic violence. He has never hit me.” Okay, would it make sense if we…
