A detailed Summary of domestic violence

Imagine that you fall in love. That the man of your dreams says "I DO" and that you may live happily ever after. Imagine you have your dream wedding, followed by your dream honeymoon. It seems that you have found the prince charming most women seek in their lives. A few months later you get the unexpected. Your husband comes home, he's had a few drinks with his buddies from work and he has a look in his eyes you have never seen before. He begins to complain about the way the house looks, the way his wife looks, and the way his life is going. He then proceeds to take out his anger on his wife.

I can write about this topic with a lot of passion. The reason being, I was there. I can clearly picture sitting at home with my mother, I was about 8 years old and lived with my mother and my stepfather. My mother and I were always very close. So we were sitting at the kitchen table. My mother was excited because she had just bought a ceramic doll, a centerpiece for the kitchen table. The doll had many slots that were to be filled with napkins. So my mother and I sat at the table inserting one napkin of different colors in each slot. It took us a few hours but we finished and it came out beautiful, my mother loved it. I remember that day as if it were yesterday. My stepfather came home drunk that night. I called him papi because at the time I thought he was my father. He came into the apartment and began to argue with my mother right away. Then the beating began, it was not the first yet I remember it better than most. My mother was screaming and there was nothing that I could do. I ran up to him and he just slapped me away. When he hit me my mother became very angry and attempted to defend herself, but it was to no avail. She just got a bigger beating. He used to grab her by her hair and drag her. I wanted to help but there was nothing that I could do. I ran to the kitchen and picked up the doll my mother and I had worked on and slammed it against the wall and screamed with all my heart. It was sought of a diversion to keep him from hitting my mother, and it worked. They both ran into the kitchen and tried to calm me down while I just screamed my lungs and my heart out. It wasn't the first time I saw my mother getting hit or the last. I never could help even though I tried. My little body was no match for this guy. He was about 5'8" 180 pounds and I was eight. I will never forget the abus
