CHILDREN CAN BE AFFECTED BY DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

An amazing little girl went to school one day. When it was time to go home, she refused to join the school bus. When asked why, she said she didn't want to go back home because her daddy beats her mummy everyday. 

She was about four years old at the time. You can imagine a four year old trying to escape home because of domestic violence. What hope do we have for her healing? 

You treat your spouse like dirt in the presence of your children, leaving the children terrified and heart broken. Sometimes you even hit your children in the process. Then the cycle continues, because broken or abused children will most likely grow up to abuse other people. 

It has to stop. A home that is unsafe for anyone is not a home.
