    From Mercy’s Story we see a lot of Situational triggers
    Would like to focus more on the up bringing aspect We have established for a fact that Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a global public health problem with often severe and far-reaching consequences. IPV frequently occurs in a family context, and family factors are often theorized to be causes of IPV.
    Perhaps on an Individual risk factor we could include Antisocial personality traits and conduct problems. Poor behavioral control and impulsiveness, Traits associated with borderline personality disorder, another aspect to look at would be Hostility towards women Attitudes accepting or justifying violence and aggression.
    History of physical or emotional abuse in childhood.
