> Never acceptable!!!!
> Not even in the media's eye. If it were acceptable or common, it would never be brought up. I think it was more acceptable & common 50 years ago than it is now.
> It seems to be more common now because women are bringing it to the attention of the authorities. Women are less afraid now and less likely to tolerate it. Basically, we have bigger attitudes now than we did 50 years ago and we expect more from a relationship.
> I feel bad for this girl though. She must have felt pretty bad about herself to stay with someone like this or get involved with him in the first place. Not only do we need to teach our boys about how wrong domestic violence is, we also need to give our girls a little self-esteem.
SO TRUE! JUST sAY AN EXTRA PRAYER AT NIGHT FOR THOSE WE DONT EVEN KNOW>
