Shared traits of abusers and victims in domestic violence
Jeri Swinton of the Women's Crisis Center in Wichita notes both groups often exhibit low self esteem and traditional family role views. Victims may accept responsibility for the abuser, feel guilt, deny fear, and attempt to control events to avoid aggravation. Abusers commonly show jealousy, blame shifting, using sex as aggression, biased beliefs, and minimal consequences for violence.
