    I have witnessed domestic violence first hand and the devastation it causes. It isn't always physical abuse either. A lot of times it is verbal and manipulative. It is very sad that insecurities and mental issues have such a devastating effect.
  •  
    Domestic violence can be physically, sexually and mentally. Many people now days want to have control of the relationship. When a person is starting to be possessive and controlling is a sign that you are going to be miserable with that person. People are free to do whatever they want to do, think how they want to think. we have to take action. No more domestic violence.
  •  
    I would like to see more of a punishment for cases involving abuse. So many cases slip through, or are not made a priority due to it being such a common issue. It is tragic to think someone can get away with victimizing family members, partners, or even strangers. I also believe substance abuse plays a huge role in why people want to have the upper-hand on others.
  •  
    This is an issue that should not be happening in the world today. It is important that we focus on controlling situations such as this so they stop being so common.
  •  
    People need to be more aware of signs that could possibly be domestic violence. I also think that we should learn more about it as children in school, and even offer ways for young ones to seek help if they're afraid.

Men Can Be Victims of Abuse, Too - The National Domestic Violence Hotline - 0 views

  •  
    Men being victim to domestic violence against another woman, or possibly another man, has been laughed at by society for quite some time. The ability for men to come out and share their abuse stories or get away from an abusive relationship needs to be encouraged more. They don't need to always be tough and "man up", that is a very old fashioned way of thinking, and needs to be reviewed.

EPIC - Domestic Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Drones - 0 views

  •  
    The Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) focuses public attention on emerging civil liberties, privacy, First Amendment issues. This being a huge privacy concern for a lot people, simply because there are no regulations in place for drones. Someone can easily go buy a drone and spy on you for just outside your own home. It could even follow you from home to work, figuring out daily routines. These makes people vulnerable to crimes against them and their families.
  •  
    This is interesting. I think that people should have some sort of permit to be able to buy a drone. It is very inactive to peoples privacy. No one really knows what these people do with the drones. They could be invading privacy for bad reasons for all we know.

      How can a child succeed in a school setting when they don't know how to ask for help when they really need it? Their trauma sets them up for failure because they have to be so self reliant at home
  • One of the challenges in giving that support is that when kids misbehave, our schools often use disciplinary systems that involve withdrawing attention and support, rather than addressing their problems

    It is not a surprise that the rates are increasing. There are so many forms of child abuse.

    There is no way we could go door to door to help the children out but I think teachers play an important role in protecting children who might have been exposed to domestic child abuse.
