Violence and Abuse

On Thursday in class I thought that it was interesting that Dr. Hollist brought both of his sons to help the class get into the discussion about abuse and violence. I thought this was good way to get the class to talk because we all wanted to know about his story of adoption. Also the effects of what abuse and violence have on children. It was interesting to me how children can bounce back from abuse and violence in the home. Another thing is the fact that men are more frequently abused than women but women are more frequently injured but I do not think that a lot of people know of this because they never think that men are being abused and it just women. I think some people in our class figured out that men are also abused too.
