VIOLENCE
Domestic violence; domestic abuse;
occurs when a family member, partner
or ex-partner attempts to physically
or psychologically dominate or harm
the other.
The term;
"intimate partner violence" (IPV)
is often used synonymously,

"wife beating",

"man beating",
"husband battering",
"relationship violence",
"domestic abuse",
"spousal abuse",
"family violence",
with some legal jurisdictions
having specific definitions.
Recent attention to domestic violence
began in the women's movement as concern
about wives being beaten by their husbands,

SECTION 2
BULLYING
Domestic violence comes as a form of
bullying, as a means to an end that
is easier than other means.
The heading on the UK National Website
for Bullying in the Family states that;
'Those Who Can, Do.
Those Who Can't Bully.'
It seems reasonable to add that those
who won't prefer violence, too.
