Why do abusers abuse? This was the central question at the conference entitled "Questions Rarely Asked About Domestic Violence", organized by Ethnic Media Services Friday, December 4th.
Abuse and violence remain in the shadows because we live in a culture of abuse of power. Not all abusers are men, to be sure. But, we must add the question of: Why do men become abusive? Or why are most abusers men?
The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the risk factors for domestic violence, a phenomenon that, according to experts, impacts 1 in 3 women and 1 in 10 men in their lifetime. This violence occurs in all ethnic groups.said psychiatrist Dr. Ravi Chandra of the American Psychiatric Association.
