This research topic is very important as it not only provides a greater understanding of domestic violence and it’s impact on children but with greater knowledge of this subject more action can be taken to create preventative measures to decrease the incidence of domestic violence. As a result of exploring this topic more in the future, we will be able to develop more accurate theories as to why women remain in such relationships, thus bringing us closer to preventing more and more children from witnessing, being a victim of, and possibly even participating in violent and abusive behaviors and relationships.

- In order to gain a better understanding of why women remain in abusive relationships every explanation that could impact that decision must be examined and then once this is determined preventative measure can begin to be created and implemented. Some women in abusive relationships are convinced that they have no choice but to remain with their abusive partner.
- There are many factors that contribute to a women’s decision to leave their abusive partner and more research is being conducted on the factors that encourage a women to leave. As far as intervention is concerned, a recent study concluded that only 42 percent of women that have been hit once have sought any form of intervention, such as calling the police or staying in a shelter (Herbert et al, 1991).
- There are so many children everyday that witness violence within their home. They are raised in hostile environments where they live in fear for themselves and for the mothers. Often times the violence can spill over onto the child by either the father or even sometimes the mothers.
- Exposure at most ages can result in post traumatic stress symptoms and a greater risk of violent behavior in the future. Studies of murders, child abusers, and violent spouses show a correlation between exposures to violence as a child and being a violent adult, the exposure to violence provided a “role model” for violence (Herbert et al, 1991).
