Counseling the Abusers, to Learn to be Alone & Anger Management

A program, to help the abusers, hoping, that with the supportive network, and more effective outlets of their angers, they don’t have to resort to violence again, from the Newspapers, translated…

Last year from January to September, there were 15,157 cases of domestic violence that were reported in the city of Hsinbei, with 79.3 percent of the victims being women and 20.7% being men, the females who were victims were about four times the men who were victimized, other than placing the victims into shelters, the city also provided the counseling programs for the abusers, to prevent the instances of domestic violence from occurring.

The manager of the Domestic Violence Preventions Center of Hsinbei City, Hsu said, that after the cases occurred, the social workers from the center would show concern toward the victims first, to understand how the violence had, happened, and offered the shelters that followed, the childcare programs, along with helping with employment; and on top of that, the social workers would also try to understand the conditions of the abusers, if drugs are involved, the individuals will be sent to rehab, and the rest of the abusers were sent to the “White Ribbon Learning Center”, to get the counseling needed.

Hsu said, that one key of the abusers is emotional control, almost all of the abusers showed negative thoughts, and when they’d bumped into a bad situation, they’d, used words, psychological, and physical ways of resolving their issues, whether it be the abuser or the enabler, the cases are all due to the problems in life, and the individuals needed outside helps.

Hsu stated, that the white ribbon learning center has the mentorship programs, with the teaching of those reformed abusers to share their experiences with the first time comers, including how to get along alone, and how to pass through the holidays, and this New Years, the group of pupils are planning a gathering meal on New Year’s Eve.

And so, this may look effective, after all, the abusers ARE once victimize from before, and, this program is digging, a little deeper, to find the cause, and helping to change the behaviors, but until these abusers can figure out WHY they’re behaving angrily toward some stimuli, the problem will never be completely, resolved, and, it’s hard enough, to admit that you were, abused by someone, and even harder, to admit to yourself, and others, that you’d, ABUSED others, and that, is why this vicious cycle will keep on getting passed down from one generation to the next.
