Domestic violence: The Australian instance of the global phenomenon
Yes, I got this inspiration from my cousin's action. She is pretty, educated, employed in an MNC and married to a emotionally insecure, employed in a small private firm husband earning less than his wife To take out his frustrations it was always I will go away I will leave you for ever and then at the height of his frustration even used to hit her.
Naturally everyone in our family was disturbed. There was no way out seemingly as the parents were of the opinion that once married it is a life long commitment.We first decided to change the attitude of the parents, at first it was like talking to a wall but slowly they came to understand the fact that their daughter's welfare came first, peoples's opinion came nowhere in the picture They promised to support her the next time she had to undergo any physical or mental trauma.
This bought an unbelievable change in the attitude of my cousin, the very next time her husband hit her on a very trivial issue, she just packed her bags and shifted to her parents place .
This action caught her husband totally unaware, now he was absolutely shattered After a long, drawn out process of promises of mending ways, she finally relented to go back.
We were all amazed as to how a simple moral support or even a thought that you are capable enough to manage things could change the misery into happiness. Now both of them are adjusting to this new shift in their roles amicably.
