Beyond The Banter

Domestic violence (DV) is not limited to physical assault, but also includes emotional and financial abuse. Coercive control and the impact of DV on victims, such as homelessness and financial instability, are major concerns.

The rise in DV may be attributed to societal changes, such as a lack of resilience and an inability to handle rejection. Early detection and intervention, particularly in the 18-24 age group, is crucial in addressing DV. Community attitudes and education play a significant role in combating DV and supporting victims.Key Takeaways

BTB continues their conversation around fatherhood.

This podcast episode is to provide a real-life account of being a father. This is also a good insight on supporting the amazing women out here who go through this harrowing life event.

We also do acknowledge that this is a longer-than-normal episode. BTB has cut as much information out as possible but we aren't going to take content out that we think is very relevant.

BTB feels that this episode is very important to all of our members in our community.

Episode 2 is here and this is a ripper...
