Domestic Violence

         Domestic violence is a serious problem, which has happened in our society for ages. It happens in many forms and causes trouble, which affects family members, especially women and children. Why domestic violence occurs in family? What are the causes of it? To know more deeply about this, we have to think about some factors that are the causes of domestic violence, which family members have faced with in their everyday lives. Indeed, there are three causes of domestic violence: low education level, alcohol, and poverty.

            First of all , domestic violence is caused by low education level. It has occurred almost in every family that its members have low or no education; domestic violence has taken place mostly in rural or remote area, where a low level of people live. For example, if a person who has low or no education, he may cause violence than the others who who are highly educated.

The second cause of domestic violence is alcohol. When a person consumes alcohol, he becomes unconscious, so he is likely to cause violence on his family members. Because of consuming alcohol, he will provoke argument with his wife or other family members, and it will lead to domestic violence. As we have seen in newspapers, we can say that alcohol is also a major factor that cause domestic violence in family. For instance, a drunkard who often gets drunk always cause domestic violence whenever he consumes alcohol.

Finally, the cause of domestic violence is poverty. As we have already known, domestic violence mostly occurs in poor family. Sometimes, people in poor family feel pressure of their poverty or no job available for them, and they cause domestic violence as well. In poor family people feel useless so that they may lose control and become angry with themselves, and they probably provoke family members, which also leads to domestic violence. For example, people living in rural area cause domestic violence than people living in city because rural people are poor or suffer from their poverty.

            In conclusion, domestic violence is a major problem in society, and it occurs as a result of low education level, alcohol, and poverty. Since  it is a serious problem, we all should find solution and prevent it from happening in order to make people in our society live in no domestic violence.
