There are many types of abuse. However, domestic violence and physical abuse, in some ways, are the worst because often there is no recovery. If you are the perpetrator of domestic violence or physical abuse, know that you are putting everyone at extreme risk. Regardless of your intention, somebody may die or be seriously injured. A high proportion of incarcerated individuals are there because they have physically assaulted (or murdered) their intimate partners.

If you are involved in any form of domestic violence or physical abuse, I strongly urge you to seek professional guidance from appropriate individuals to protect everyone in your family, including yourself. Don’t let your legacy be that you were an abusive person!
