Everybody is familiar with the story of Chris Brown and Rihanna right? If not, let me inform you. Chris Brown is a famous singer who was reportedly dating the huge pop star Rihanna. I was reading the story about Chris Brown and Rihanna last night and discovered some very interesting news. If I understood the reading right, Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together after he put his hands on her in his range rover, Which brings me to the topic of domestic violence in relationships. Love can drive people to do some crazy things, but the problem is that some things are too much. Domestic violence can happen in anybody’s relationship, but it’s up to the ladies not to let it happen. Many people overlook abusive men like Chris Brown because domestic violence is so common, but lately, domestic violence has been on the rise and is a major issue. According to Clark County attorney staff, domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women between the ages of 15 and 44. This is more than car accidents, rapes, and muggings combined.It is estimated that three to four million women in the United States are beaten in their homes each year by their husbands or boyfriends. The Uniform Crime FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigations) reported that one woman is beaten every 15 seconds in the U.S., and one in every 4 women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime. This clearly shows that every woman that’s in a relationship is at risk of becoming a victim of domestic violence. Don’t let these men out here pull a “Chris Brown” act off. Women are too smart and beautiful to let their lover abuse them. If he hits you physically, he’s not a true lover, and you need to think again about running back his way.
