What is Family Violence?
Family violence means an abuse of power within a relationship of family, trust or dependency, and included many forms of abusive behaviour, e.g. emotional abuse, psychological abuse, criminal harassment, neglect, financial exploitation, destruction of property, injury to pets, physical assault, sexual assault and homicide.
Abusive behaviour often results in the individual feeling afraid and controlled.
