Everyone can suffer from it, even if one does not accept it. Domestic violence is one of the least reported issues in El Paso because of several reasons, including fear and shame, or victims just do not know they are being through this. What exactly is domestic violence? There are four types: physical, psychological, sexual, and neglect. Each one of them is different but with the same goal; it harms one that is weaker than the perpetrator.
Anyone in their life, no matter the age, gender or race, can suffer from any of the four types of domestic violence at home or at some place that they feel secure; there is not a conclusion about why does the domestic violence happens, but there are some ideas like that the abuser thinks that because it is their family, they have the right to do whatever they want to them.
Physical abuse is when one harms another person, such as hitting, kicking, or using an object to injure someone. Physical abuse is one of the most common on domestic violence, to children, wives, husbands, or elders. For example, a parent hitting their children is consider physical abuse; also to make bruises or marks in the skin with an object and of course bullying.
Psychological abuse is when one makes another person feel less than they are or make them feel not loved; also lying and humiliate are other examples of psychological abuse. This could not only make someone feel bad or less, it could make one to tempt suicide, or to get a mental illness. Bullying can also consider psychological, because it intimidates the victim and make them feel they are not worth.
Sexual abuse, as the name says, is to abuse sexually of a person, forced intercourse, harassment and make someone feel uncomfortable by saying or touching in a wrong way. Statistics show that the 75% of the victims of sexual abuse were attacked by someone they trust. Parents to children, husbands to wives, any family member to another; sexual abuse can happen in any way.
Neglect, the last type of domestic violence, is to not pay attention to a person that depends on one, or to not give the basic need to them. For example, auto medicate someone or living a child alone, are consider neglectful acts. Be neglectful with someone do not mean that you ignore them for five minutes to ground them, it means to not give the needs or not give the attention properly of someone who is dependent on one at the time is needed.
There are many organizations that are providing help to the victims of domestic violence, some of them are CAFV and STARS. These organizations are proving help to those who suffer from domestic violence and are trying to stop it. These organizations also are trying to make a difference on the style of living of the people who may suffer domestic violence. They provide shelter, therapy, safety and other basic needs for those who do not feel safe.
The Sexual Trauma Assault Resources Services (STARS) can be contact at their office at (915) 533-7700 or to their website http://www.stars-elpaso.org/, in which one can find tips and several information on the services and purpose. The Center against Family Violence (CAFV) also can be contact by their crisis hope line at (915) 593-7300 or on the website http://www.cafv.org/Shelter, for any information.
Also the state of Texas provides financial help on hospitalizations and therapies for victims. The advice that the police give is that any victim of domestic violence should call 911, take pictures of any injury, have a medical record, show police the injuries, ask for help at any domestic abuse shelter, and to document the abuse before the violence increase or at the first sign of abuse.
A problem on domestic violence is that not many people really know what is or what the consequences of it are. There are also some people who do not know the differences between discipline and abuse. There are some major differences between them, as hitting a child with objects or to force a kid to eat more or less than what they have. Spank a kid with a lot of force that can really hurt them bad or with an object is consider abuse, but if one spanks them is not abuse is discipline. Also there are small things, as lying or calling them nicknames, that could not be intentionally made to harm but can be consider as psychological abuse.
Domestic violence is something that the citizens from El Paso should try to stop because is one of the reason of most of the deaths in the city. The victims can be kids, teens, adults or elders, the violence can happen to anyone and everywhere. There are people that can make a difference if they try to help and to stop the violence. But there is also the fact that is very hard to change the way some people think or act, and to break a cycle that could ¬continue by the ones who suffer it. Domestic violence is not something that disappears in time, it has long-term effects, and it can make a victim to become an abuser.
