BLOODY COUPLES:
+Incidence of fatal confrontations between couples is escalating.
-seemingly road accident reports have been fast replaced by family accidents!
+The rate and impact of fighting couples is pitching to a world war status.
+This is a very unique social malady that cuts across the social divide; the poor, the middle class to the rich bourgeoisie.
++Though a cultural phenomenon that was interpreted for love, domestic violence has taken a dynamic trend.

What is regarded gender-based violence is men using their superior physical strength and social authority to demean and batter their wives.
Why the Animosity?
What happened to love...
And mutual respect
Values...
Honor for the institution...
The simplicity with which its causation is defined makes the solution look like it will be a one-stop shopping!
Cheating!
In every other case of domestic violence,
Infidelity is to blame.
#But is this the truth?
Infidelity is just a presenting problem.
We need to get deeper and get the real-life factors that have continued to render couples widows and widowers or divorcées, as children are orphaned; and brutely so!
FORMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE:
+Outright physical confrontation
+Well planned conspiracies
+spontaneous fight that suddenly results in death.
We need to dig deeper into the causes of this bloody social phenomenon before we subscribe the cure.
There is no couple that just wakes up one day to fight and kill each other!
Can we stop the menace?
