      Those programs enable her to discuss openly with her husband, take lessons from other couples, and have good relationships with her children .

        A strong family needs to have a man as head of the household- I strongly disagree with this, instead, I believe that both men and women should be in equal positions to lead the house, generate income, to access and control resources.
        Women and men should share responsibility for raising children and doing housework – yes there must be an equal share of responsibility and burden among men and women within the house.
        Beating a child teaches him or her discipline – spare the rod and spoil the child-
        Most women and children are abused by strangers. Women and children are safe when they are at home. yes, many women and children faced violence in an environment outside of their homes but I can’t deny the domestic violence against women and children by their relatives like husbands, fathers, and neighbors.
        Men cannot control themselves. Violence is simply a part of their nature- No, for me it is socially constructed not biological or natural
        Violence against women is a private matter and should not be discussed publicly, OR Intimate partner violence/domestic violence is a private matter, and outsiders should not interfere- No, we have to struggle for the rights of women and child
