A good piece, not great, but good. I've got to admit, this subject is a little tired, but you did a good job with it anyway. A well written piece with a story to boot, well done.

Seen loved ones go through this. And even me though it wasn't physical abuse. It is a vicious cycle...though you words are sad it's the brutal truth! Nice write!

Portrayal is so clear no place for any doubt.
Have seen from close quarters this game of makebelief, hoping that one day they'll kick the habit , until it kicks them in.

Painful but very well written.

Written well but ashame many men and women stay through domestic violence.. I have witnessed it and it's awful.

I've often wondered why people stay with people who abuse them. I watched for five years as my mom was abused by a man. She left but always went back. It got worse and worse, it finally ended when he took a carpet knife to her face, saying if he couldn't look at her face every morning no one would. I was seven.
