Adrian Morales<p>The abuser will be super nice to everyone so as to appear that there is nothing wrong with them, that the victim is at fault, basically gaslighting them.</p><p>You see, when a person loses their self-confidence and support network, they automatically become dependent on the abuser.

ΞVΞ🌸<p><strong>King of Crashing Out</strong></p> My narcissistic boyfriend is the king of crashing out to the point it's predictable. Tomorrow, he has court for the apartment, but the problem is the court wanted proof that his daughter had been in the house in 2021 to keep the apartment since it's NYCHA housing. The boyfriend can never handle stress so I knew there would be drama today, and as usual, he never fails to deliver. Today, he went to his daughter's mom's house for her to sign a letter saying that her daughter had been at the […] <p><a href="https://evenyc.com/king-of-crashing-out/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">evenyc.com/king-of-crashing-ou</span><span class="invisible">t/</span></a></p>

T.J. Crowder<p>The Guardian: 2 out of every 5 people arrested re last summer’s anti-immigration riots had been previously reported to the police for domestic abuse. There were charges in "less than a quarter" of those, so "only" 1 in 10 rioters had a record of being charged with DA. That's nearly 3x the DA incidence in the most deprived areas of the UK (and nearly 4x that of the rest of the UK).</p><p>Tell me again how the immigrants are the problem.</p><p>Link below.</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/domesticabuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>domesticabuse</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>immigration</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/UKPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UKPolitics</span></a></p>

Looking for explanations…<p>There was a lot of fanfare about this book when it came out in 2019. I saw Jess on TV several times (mostly on that excellent show, The Drum) &amp; meant to read it. Then Covid came along, &amp; The Trump Show Pt1, and I didn’t need to read something about yet another upsetting subject. </p><p>Finally doing it now. I’m only a few pages in, and in spite of being an ardent feminist with a major in Feminist studies, I’ve already learned something. </p><p>Something I did know, is that most domestic abuse isn’t violent. Violence only happens when the abuse is out of control. The violence we hear about, is the tip of the iceberg. </p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/DomesticAbuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DomesticAbuse</span></a><br>#<a href="https://aus.social/tags/DomesticViolence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DomesticViolence</span></a></p>

The description in this article is exactly what our daughter's ex-husband did to her.

We were too blind to understand what was going on, although we knew something 'wasnt right'.
This led to the spiral of depression, compulsive behaviour, suicide attempts and despair that she is now recovering from - bundled together as PTSD.

He still tries, almost 10 years on - as the article says - to isolate Kasa from family members by controlling their daughters and preventing / severely limiting her access them.

Yes, coersive behaviour is a criminal offence, but how is it proven sufficiently for a prosecution because 'He says - She says' means there's insufficient proof.
