Although 1 in 3 women experience abuse in their lifetime, 1 in 6 men do too. This is even more hidden for men as shame and embarrassment play a big part in the hidden world of domestic abuse.
Andrew Pain describes his own experience from being a young man falling into a situation that lasted for nearly 10 years. This episode highlights how easy it is to find yourself in a relationship that creates havoc in your family, friendship, personal and work life.
He talks about
when and how it started
how the abuse escalated
why men don't leave
how children affect decisions
how to cope after leaving and why you will have to
and how to SPOT THE SIGNS in a man you may know
He also shares his thoughts on dealing with parental alienation and expectations of the courts, the support he received from social cervices and his life now with his girls and his new family.
