This domestic violence really should be a thread all it's own. Because when I was working with one ministry where we helped people with a wide range of problems I personally tried to counsel with a couple of ladies who were literally being used as human "punching bags" by their so-called "loving partners" :rolleyes:James Y wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 8:43 amRegarding domestic violence: yes, it is one of the most-feared calls the police can get. Sometime back in the late 1980s, when I was living overseas in Taiwan, I got news that a former childhood playmate who had later become a Los Angeles police officer, had been shot and killed as he and his partner were responding to a domestic violence call.

For years I never put much stock or belief in the concept of the Stockholm Syndrome but in the past couple of years I've been re-considering it. Because so many cases where two minister friends of mine who helped women and children get out of those hellish situations in many cases you see the beat up women go right back to the guy who was literally severely beat them and in some cases the kids as well to a bloody pulp only to see the mother go right back to this degenerate coward/scumbag>> and in two distinct cases they went back more than just once.
So there must be something to the theory of the Stockholm Syndrome :confused: Because I can't for the life of me understand why any self respecting woman would subject herself or even her children for GOD's sake to what you could literally call "ROUND #2" of a hellish, nightmare scenario of violence and in many cases a life threatening situation. Because with over 4 billion men on the planet I would think that finding a new boyfriend or husband would be a much better choice :confused: :confused:
