Domestic Violence
Domestic violence can be abuse between family members or related persons. Domestic violence takes on many forms: actual physical abuse, threats of physical abuse, emotional abuse, threatening telephone calls, disturbances at a place of employment, stalking, and other forms of dominance and control. It is also distinguished from other kinds of abuse because of the special relationship between the persons.
