CONCLUSION
• We, therefore, assumed that domestic violence is taking place when a person can no longer
express sovereignty and has been enduring physically, psychologically discomfort that could
possibly lead being imprisoned into a certain sphere. Domestic abuse does not only imply
for women but also for youngsters.
• According to Republic Act, 9262 Anti-violence against Women and their children act 2004
any sequence of acts committed by any person against a woman who is his wife, former
wife, or against a woman with whom the person has or had a sexual or dating relationship,
or whom he has a common child. Domestic Violence holds different impacts on the victims
which are for example Anxiety, Chronic Depression, Chronic pain and many more presented
earlier.
• Forthwith, domestic violence against women has preventions particularly Programs,
Counseling and End Gender Stereotypes. Conceding to the Bible women was made by the
rib of man which implies that women are the missing piece of men. Nevertheless, women
accumulate that "missing" piece of man not just giving it children as well as a comfortable
home.
• Moreover, women tend to multiply the things that you will give her, for instance, if you
would give her sperm she will give you a child if you give her house she will give you home,
