Abuse and battering take many forms.
People can be abused and accept it thinking
"that's just how life is." NO! A pretty young
woman was talking to the clerk in a Pahrump
mini-mart. The clerk expressed surprise that
the woman had returned to a battering hus-
band. The woman said, "Well, what are you
gonna do? They (men) think all women are
good for is to beat 'em and breed 'em." NO!
Women are the victims in 94-95 precent
of reported domestic violence cases. The
statistics may be low for men who may be too
embarrassed to seek help. They may not have
any idea where to turn for help or may, as
many women, not know they are abused.
Next week, the series on domestic violence
and abuse will resume as we focus on abused
men.
Below is a check list compiled by No to
Abuse. Ask yourself these questions. If you
answer YES to any of these things, you may
be abused. Call 751-1118, "No to Abuse" to
get help.
