- Even though there are violent and bad times in the relationship, there are also loving and good times.
- She probably believes that she must stay married until “death do they part”.
- She probably believes that the violence will stop if she does all the things a good wife should do
- She is isolated from family and friends by her husband who has told her she doesn’t need anyone but him, and because she feels embarrassed about bruises and lacerations
- She is afraid
- She fears that if she leaves -the abuser will find her and hurt her even more
- she won’t be able to support herself or her children
- the husband may get custody of the children because he has more money and can afford a better attorney.
