For victims of Domestic Violence
It is often very difficult to recognize that we have become a victim of domestic violence, as it may have become such an integral part of our everyday lives that we do not even notice. If our partner or someone in our family, causes us physical or mental harm, behaves in a humiliating manner, financially exploits, controls, or forces us to engage in sexual acts that are undesirable or degrading to us, they are severely abusing their physical or mental power, which is not acceptable, under any circumstances. The following example sentences can help victims, as well as relatives, acquaintances and friends who feel they may know a victim.
