Violence in Families Violence in families can cause lasting harm. Some problems are too serious for family members to handle on their own.

Violence in Families One of the most dangerous problems a family can face is abuse. Abuse The physical, mental, emotional, or sexual mistreatment of one person by another

Violence in Families Domestic violence can occur in all kinds of families, regardless of income, ethnicity, or education level. Domestic violence Acts of violence involving family members

Spousal Abuse Spousal abuse can involve physical or sexual violence as well as emotional abuse. It is a criminal act that can be prosecuted by law. Spousal abuse Domestic violence or any other form of abuse directed at a spouse

Spousal Abuse Spousal abuse often goes unreported because victims may blame themselves for their partners’ abusive behavior. They may also be unwilling to tear the family apart by leaving an abusive spouse.

Spousal Abuse Spousal abuse often goes unreported because victims fear they will be unable to support themselves or their children if they leave. They may also fear for their lives and the lives of their children.

Child Abuse Child abuse includes any action that harms or threatens a child’s health and development. Child abuse can be physical, emotional, or sexual. Child abuse Domestic abuse directed at a child

Child Abuse Child abuse may also involve neglect. Neglect The failure to provide for a child’s basic needs

Child Abuse Neglected children may lack adequate food, clothing, shelter, or medical support. Leaving children alone and unsupervised for long periods of time is also a form of neglect.

Child Abuse Many abusive parents were abused themselves as children and don’t know any other way for a family to function. Alcohol and drug abuse also increase the risk of violence in the home.

Elder Abuse Elder abuse can occur both within the family and in institutional settings such as nursing homes. Elder abuse The abuse or neglect of older family members

Elder Abuse Older family members may suffer physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, as well as neglect. Elder abuse can also be financial.

Effects of Abuse For many victims of abuse, the emotional scars left by abuse last longer than the physical injuries. Victims often experience feelings of shame, worthlessness, anxiety, and depression.

Effects of Abuse Without treatment, abused children often grow up to become abusers themselves. This is called the cycle of violence. Cycle of violence The pattern of repeating violent or abusive behaviors from one generation to the next

Effects of Abuse Children suffering abuse at home need to seek help from an adult they can trust, such as a relative, teacher, medical professional, or religious adviser.

Effects of Abuse The police can connect abused teens with social services that can help them. Short-term shelters can provide a safe place to stay. “Drop-in” services can provide food, clothing, medical attention, and crisis counseling.

Stopping Domestic Abuse Recognize ResistReport Stopping domestic violence depends on the three Rs:

Stopping Domestic Abuse The first step to stopping domestic violence is to recognize the problem. Victims and others need to be aware that child abuse and domestic violence are crimes. Any claim of abuse should be taken seriously, even if it sounds unbelievable.

Stopping Domestic Abuse Victims of domestic abuse can also resist their abusers. If someone tries to harm you, you can try to escape or to prevent the attack. Once you escape, seek help from a trusted adult.

Stopping Domestic Abuse Reporting the abuse is the third step in putting a stop to it. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a family member or a school nurse. Contact an abuse hotline or a crisis center. Go directly to the police.

Stopping Domestic Abuse The victim may also require counseling and medical care. Abusers need help, too. Through counseling and other strategies, they can learn to manage their feelings and break the cycle of violence.

Sources of Support Communities offer many forms of support to families in crisis. The type of help needed depends on the seriousness of the problem.

Sources of Support Sources of Help for Families Family Counseling Services Support Groups Community Services Law Enforcement Officials Hospitals or Clinics Faith Communities

Counseling Family counseling is therapy to restore healthy relationships in a family.

Community Services Troubled family members may seek help from a crisis center. Crisis center A facility that offers advice and support to people dealing with personal emergencies.

Counseling Family counseling can help some families deal with changes such as separation or divorce. It can also help in cases when one member has a problem that affects the entire family.

Support Groups A support group is a group of several people who are all coping with the same problem. The group meets regularly to discuss their problems and get advice from each other.

Community Services Crisis hotlines are special telephone numbers people can call to receive help 24 hours a day.

Community Services Many communities provide shelters where people can go to escape abuse. Social agencies can remove children from abusive homes and place them in foster care. Public agencies can help adults find a job or receive job training. Social services help provide food, clothing, shelter, and medical care. Public or private agencies may offer classes on parenting and conflict resolution.
