Breaking Free, Starting Over: Parenting in the Aftermath of Family Violence

by Christina Dalpiaz

What is often labeled domestic violence is, in this book, referred to as family violence, because the emotional terrorism that infuses violence between adults affects not only the adult victims but also the children who witness the abuse. Dalpiaz shows how a caring and thoughtful parent can recognize the trauma family violence inflicts upon children, and how to help them recover and go on to live happy, violence-free childhoods.

Very informative for anti violence professionals

Picked up the book to see what C. Dalpiaz had to say about the aftermath of family violence and was pleasantly surprise to learn so much about the dynamics of spousal abuse. Quite an eye opener! Thank you C. Dalpiaz.
