That family violence injures and kills its victims both physically and psychologically was established over two decades ago by early researchers in this field. Abused and Battered heralds the second generation of domestic abuse research: it examines the implications of the legal and social responses to both victims and offenders by systematically addressing the intended and unintended consequences of programs and procedures designed to ameliorate the effects of spousal and child abuse. Contributors to this multidisciplinary volume represent the leading perspectives in public health, law and criminal justice, psychology, and sociology. They provide new and sophisticated insights regarding the etiology of the multiple forms of family abuse and they suggest innovative strategies for mitigating the anguish resulting from physical and emotional violence against adults and children within households. The results of this research will be of interest to students and practitioners in sociology, public health, psychology and family studies, and to clinicians and therapists who treat victims or offenders.

This document presents information regarding the signs of domestic abuse, myths, the cycle of abuse, and steps to get out of a violent relationship. The signs of domestic abuse include physical violence, denial of medical treatment, forced sex, and the threat of a beating or being killed. Other forms of abuse, such as emotional, can cause low self-esteem, depression, and loneliness. Emotional abuse is just as real as the bruises and beatings of physical abuse. One of the common myths about abuse is that mostly low-income, minority women are abused. Middle- and upper-income women are also abused, but they tend to seek help from private agencies that do not report their statistics. Another myth is that alcohol and drug abuse usually cause battering. Physical abuse is a separate problem from substance abuse, and it needs to be handled as a separate problem. It is a myth that women that stay in abusive relationships enjoy it. Women that stay in abusive relationships often feel trapped or paralyzed, and are often ashamed to reveal their situation. Another myth is that women that are abused must have done something to make their partners mad and deserved the abuse. Abusive behavior is learned. Abusers are often taught during their childhood to use violence, verbal abuse, or both as a means of solving problems or dealing with stress. It is a myth that children are not harmed by domestic violence unless they are also beaten or abused. Children that witness their mothers being hit or abused are harmed emotionally, have problems in school, and are fearful, angry, or depressed. The three stages of abuse are building tension, explosion, and kiss and make up. These three phases of abuse often happen again and again. The five steps for coming into the light or escaping from abuse, are facing the truth, developing a plan, getting out, getting help from professionals, and moving on with life.

If you or someone you know is in an abusive relationship, this book will show you a way out. The life of an abused woman is one of fear, pain, and isolation. Not only is she victimized by the man she loves, she is often disbelieved and abandoned by friends and family. Broken emotionally and battered physically, she is left feeling as if there is no way out. But there is a way out, and this powerfully courageous book leads the way. Refusing to gloss over the terrible realities of abuse, this book shares the true stories of abused women while exploring the male rational behind abuse and the reasons women minimize or deny the extent of their abuse. The book goes on to discuss practical issues such as court procedures and child custody as well as offering a step-by-step safety and escape plan.

In 1995, Kentucky governor Brereton Jones granted parole to ten women who had been convicted of killing, conspiring to kill, or assaulting the men who had abused them for years. The media began referring to them as the "Sisters in Pain," a name they embraced. These are their stories. Linda Elisabeth Beattie and Mary Angela Shaughnessy's interviews of seven of the Sisters in Pain detail the physical, sexual, or psychological abuse they suffered at the hands of their husbands or boyfriends, battery beyond comprehension. Anyone who has ever asked, "Why don't they just leave?" will come to understand the interconnected strands of abuse that make just living through another day a personal triumph. Beattie and Shaughnessy address the pervasive nature of domestic violence in America and explore the legal ramifications of fighting back. Their interviews with the Sisters in Pain reveal the ways in which these women have picked up the pieces of their shattered lives and learned to face the future.

Confessions of a Battered Woman is a true story of how the author, Emily Johnson, grew up in an abusive home; And following the cycle of abuse, she married a man who beat and battered her. After he unsuccessfully tried to murder her, Emily devised a plan to leave with her two small children and escape to California almost forty years ago. In today's society domestic violence is still the leading cause of injury to females. Every twelve seconds physical abuse occurs in the life of a woman somewhere in America. Every forty six seconds a woman is raped. The laws have changed. But women and girls are still suffering at the hands of their husbands or their boyfriends. The last chapter of this book is directed to those women who are still suffering from abusive relationships. It is meant to help them to empower themselves, reclaim their dignity and take back their lives. "Emily's passionate story is reflective of many of the patients I see in my practice daily. This book could be of help to many women who are, or could become victims of domestic violence."--Nolan C. Jones M.D., Obstetrics and Gynecology
