Most importantly: is it possible for violence to stop? refuge.org.uk/get-help-now/h…
The same goes for alcohol. Alcohol can act as a trigger for ppl to be more violent than usual but it's not the underlying cause.
At the same time blaming violence on childhood experiences is avoiding responsibility. Violence is a choice someone makes.
Or even worse, they have absolutely no idea how their actions impact others.
And of course, they will never willingly admit to being a bully, abusive, or unable to control their anger. The blame is 100% on the 'other'
It's not that they can't feel the pain- they have learned subconsciously that violence is the way to express anger or assert power. (2/3)
