What is Domestic Violence?

Domestic violence is a specific and deliberate pattern of behavior for the sole purpose of establishing and maintaining power and control over another person in an intimate relationship. Battering is the establishment of control and fear in a relationship thru the use of violence and other forms of abuse.
