Domestic violence is a very serious problem in the US as a survey conducted by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence reveals that over 10 million Americans experience domestic violence and abuse every year. This statistic also reveals that physical abuse caused by an intimate partner occurs once every 20 or 30 minutes. There are several types of domestic abuse that are caused by intimate partners: physical abuse, verbal abuse, and sexual abuse.
Physical abuse occurs when a person harms their intimate partner or children on purpose. Physical abuse can make people fear for their lives and suffer emotional distress. Verbal abuse occurs when an individual insults and disrespects their partner or children in order to make them feel low. Sexual abuse happens when an individual attempts to have a sexual relationship or activity with their partner without having their consent. This can also involve forcing the partner to have sexual intercourse.
