WHEN WOMEN USE FORCE

You’ve heard the numbers tossed around- half of all abused spouses are men, women are as violent as men, she’s the one who abused me!  And there’s no doubt that women can be perpetrators of domestic violence.  So what’s the real story about women who abuse?  We are fortunate to have Lisa Young Larance, MSW, join us for Saturday’s show, “When women use violence.”  She is the Domestic Violence Intervention Services Coordinator at a Michigan Catholic Social Services organization, and has researched, written about and talked about women’s use of force.  Find out how often women strike out, when and why they strike out, and what we know about women who have used force in relationships.  It’s not a simple topic.  Join us, share your comments and stories with us, and let others know about this controversial show.
