Abuse among Men
It might be a surprise to you, but men also get physically abused by their females partners. Despite the known “greater strength” of men, they, too, can also suffer from such abuse. Maybe because of their fear of hurting the person they love, or maybe because of issues of inferiority. But no matter what the reason, it’s still an abuse – an it’s something that shouldn’t be tolerated.
Back in a 1993 study, believe it or not, 80% of secondary men have been abused by their partners. If it wasn’t a physical pain, it would be an emotional or verbal abuse. Some studies cited that 7% to 15% also experienced abuse, and in 2000, the age range of the abused men starts from 20’s to 60’s.

I need help!!! My husband was abused by his ex-wife for over 12 years. It even bordered on attempted murder; all of which was done in front of the kids. He got away from her but she continues to try to break us up, manipulate him, use the kids against him, etc. I have had it!!!! I love my husband and I want him to heal but at the same time I want him to take legal action against her and he won’t. His claim is that he can’t because it’s the kids’ mother. What can I do?
