tactics to dominate and manipulate the victim, ensuring their submission and dependence.




Question: How does societal stigma impact victims of family violence?

for victims to seek help or disclose their abuse. It can also prevent them from receiving the

necessary support from their community or family.

environment for disclosure, offering resources and referrals, and documenting injuries for legal

purposes.




Question: What is the significance of mandatory reporting laws in cases of family violence?


Answer: ✔✔ Mandatory reporting laws require certain professionals, such as healthcare

providers and teachers, to report suspected cases of family violence to authorities, ensuring that

victims receive protection and intervention.




Question: How does economic abuse function as a form of family violence?


Answer: ✔✔ Economic abuse involves controlling the victim's access to financial resources,

limiting their ability to work or access money, and creating economic dependence to maintain

control and prevent them from leaving the abusive relationship.
