This is not true. The first step in understanding and ending abuse is to put responsibility for the abuse where it belongs. Responsibility for abuse rests solely with the person acting violently. Another factor that continues abuse is the myth that stress, finances and alcohol are the cause of abuse. The truth is some of these factors may contribute to abuse, but they are external and are frequently used as an excuse for inappropriate behavior.
Healthy options are available.
Without help, the violence usually becomes more severe and more frequent. If you are in an abusive relationship, please get support. If you know someone who is being abused, urge them to seek help.
