victims of domestic violence
When it comes to domestic violence, many myths and prejudices still remain. This short questionnaire will help you demystify some of them.
FALSE
It is wrong to claim that women who are victims of domestic violence suffer from emotional dependence. They are rather ambivalent or indecisive, which is the result of the cycle of domestic violence. Indeed, the cycle of domestic violence leads the woman to doubt her perceptions and believe that she is responsible for what she is going through. In addition, one strategy used by violent partners is to isolate the woman, which fosters dependence on her partner on several levels, such as social and financial.
