Talking About Domestic Violence

“Talking About Domestic Violence” looks at different types of violence in the home and how children can be affected by it. The book encourages children to talk to someone they trust and reassures them that help is there. It describes how families have left violent homes and built new lives.
“Home is where everyone is supposed to be safe. So witnessing an adult hitting or threatening their partner affects children deeply and can leave life-long emotional scars. Children too may be physically hurt. Frightened, worried sick, ashamed that it’s happening to their mum or dad and confused by the abuse of a parent they love, some withdraw into a cloak of silence to protect the family.” (ABUSE AND NEGLECT) (DOMESTIC VIOLENCE)
