Great movie! My father was abusive to my mother and my 3 siblings. I swore never to suffer at the hand of an abuser but found myself married to one who bragged about slapping women. He lifted his hand to me when I was pregnant with our son and I smacked him right back leaving him on the floor lights-out. It was then that I decided to leave him. He never touched me in the months to follow but kept on with emotional abuse. The more I did not react the worse it got until one day he came home from work and me and our 6 month old son were gone. Now happily divorced and my son is an upstanding 27 year old young man - nothing like his father (who died when my son turned 10). I will not stand for abuse from any person in any form - least of all against the innocent and defenseless or any animal.

Well maybe not singular stories but they are based on generally true stories. There are many cases of physical domestic abuse so it’s a genetic story.

After being in several abusive relationships...I vowed to die alone and single. I never get bored, I never get lonely...and I and ONLY I decide when, where, who, how and what I do. I have my kids and grandkids...I give my time to rescues...cats....and I'm happier for it all. You do NOT need a spouse or significant other to be happy as long as you are happy with yourself. And I DO NOT tolerate the abuse of anyone or anything. Life is TOO short to waste it on someone who does not appreciate and respect you. Love yourself, trust yourself...and know your self worth. And have faith in God that HE will lead you down the right path. And if you have days where it seems like God is a little short handed and moving too slow...just keep walking your own path.

One has to ask the obvious question how come it took you so long to learn that valuable lesson? Several abusive partners? Is it that you just thought you weren’t worthy or you simply couldn’t learn a lesson. Thankfully it wasn’t too late for you. I know other silly women who have had multiple abusive partners not necessarily physically abusive but controlling And they always defend them. I have a friend well she is with yet another abusive partner and I’ve just walked away. She never learned her lesson never. Yes, Anna I know I sound judgemental but it just makes me wonder how these victims never learn their lesson.

I agree with what you have said. I was in an abusive relationship in the past. Unfortunately, he drank and was a recovering alcoholic. We were not married. Many times he cheated on me and he knew I knew. I stayed with him and tried to help him get thru his issues. We had good and bad times together. It was a love/hate relationship. He passed away almost 4 years ago from cancer. I did take care of him while he was ill. I am not in a relationship now, and am alone. Have dealt with many health issues myself since then. I am coping as best as I can with getting older and taking care of my beloved cat. He is my support animal and I love him so much. Taking one day at a time, thats all you can do and try to keep your spirits up. Hope the best for you in the future. Take care. 😊😊😊

People shouldn't judge us because until they go thru it theirselves, they will never understand.

Leaving an abuser is harder than people think. I was with one off and on for 11 years. Every time I left him, he always found me. They promise you the world if you would go home to them.

I remember a story by a pastor in the 1930s about a very slight woman married to a huge male drunk. Everyone knew he beat her up and no one liked it. Anyway, one day, she tied him up while he lay on the bed drunk and when he woke up, she beat him up with a whip. He never beat her up again and everyone, including the pastor, was glad she did it. People stayed out of people's marriages and families back in the day, but people wanted her to leave him. Divorce was not common. You can divorce now, but there are women who stay with physical and mental abuse. I think if you tied him up and whipped him these days, he would sue you and the police would lock you up - even if he regularly beat you up. I suppose they reckon you could leave if you want to rather than beat him up.

He did the unthinkable to me (his wife) He broke dishes, glasses, punched walls, punched his hand through a windshield & broke his hand. He begged, promised & cried on his knees many times that he would stop the violence, it never stopped. I don't wish this on anyone. The first time someone shows you who they are, RUN and don't ever look back. It's not your fault no matter what they say to you. Five years of my life I wish I could forget.

The husband is representing a true narcissist. Arrogant, angry, abusive, manipulation, cares about his marriage status in front of others, cares about his business more than family, doesn’t have mercy for others, physical abuse, verbal abuse, mental abuse…..etc. The abuser always finds the empath, and the empath believes him no matter what others tell her until she falls in the trap. And always the empath is a very kind hearted person, she thinks will change or fix him. Honestly no one can change anyone. My advise to unmarried young girls to think million times before marrying someone and don’t love and give the green light until you are sure he is the one, the good one.

If only you knew. If you are not that type of person, you don't think as they do, and you can never out think them, because you have morals. You can only defensively react to what they've done to you- my mail was stolen in January with all of my tax paperwork, my renewed driver's license...so it's become identity theft, too. In the last month, I've been assaulted twice by people I don't know. The police are part of the problem, because they are friends. I'm not from this area. I will now have to change my social security number, I have had to call all agencies ... I will change my name, again.I did once already.. Being married to this man- and his family, his pals, cronies, his school mates from kindergarten even,- just for 3 years, became a life sentence for my daughter and myself. Turns out he had done this before, and his daughter from the first marriage went through a similar ordeal as us- but, the courts never allowed his violent history into our case.

Just started watching this movie and was reading the comments. its heartbreaking that so many people go through this. I've just come out of a 35 year marriage to a narcissist. Any abuse weather it be verbal, physical, emotional even financial, controlling is all abuse. People always say just leave or why does she stay. There are many many reasons why someone stays. Fear, panic, no self esteem, lack of finances, dependant on them, battered wives syndrome, trauma bonding simular to Stockholm syndrome. What ever the reason its usually because over time the abuser has caused you to feel all those things, made you feel your nothing without them, you have been brainwashed into thinking you can't survive without them. I've only been out of my situation for a month now and it is extremly difficult, maybe it takes time to adapt and find yourself again. I am trying to start my own new life now completely alone, its far from easy especally without any support. when someone tells you they are being abused the best thing you can do is tell them and show them that they are not alone because going from an abusive relationship and being completely alone is also difficult. But if i can do it i hope others find the srength to also do it.

I had a male acquaintance who suffered abuse by his wife. I was told by a psychologist friend when I told him, the longer you are in such a relationship, the harder it is to get out, and that often it can take six times (of leaving, getting out) to finally make the break. That man moved out a couple of times, and each time he went back, but he finally made it. By that time he was in his late 60's and broke, but he seemed more relaxed and at piece.

The lesson I got from this is is to always listen to your mom and dad . Her dad warned her about this man and told her to not marry him . This is why we need to listen . We might think they too old to understand or thst they don’t know anything but that’s just us being stupid . Our parents know the deal .

I LOVE Cheryl Ladd! I've seen just about all of her work, this is one hard-working lady! She's so versatile. From vixen, to sweet and demure, to menacing villain - Cheryl Ladd nails each and every role she portrays!!!!!!

I can’t even watch it for long. I’m getting my ptsd flashbacks and still have nightmares of spousal rape. I tried to tell my daughter and nieces to be cautious about men and even ppl around you. I am almost 40 learning how to live again. Lost it all bc I let abusers take over but not anymore! Be strong and fight everyday!

As one who suffers partial deafness, I really appreciated the sub-titles. Usually, KZread videos have auto-generated sub-titles, which are fine to a point, but the ones on this film were the real deal. Please upload more films with real subtitles, it would mean a lot to me. Many thanks. Bob Hutton

Just about to watch this movie. I got out of an abusive marriage 30 years ago. The nightmare continued for 4-5 years, even though I had a restraining order against him. He used to sit in the car drinking out on the street in front of where I was living, at my mum's, who was terrified of what he would do. He used to phone in the middle of the night saying I would never see another sunrise. Once he entered the house and got stuck into punching me and throwing me around. I had him up on assault, and he wanted me to drop the charges. I had to go to court, got into a lift by myself, next minute he got in. Just the two of us. I thought he was going to kill me in that lift. I was telling a coworker a few years ago, and she said ' get over it'. She upset me. She didn't go through it. And you never get over it.

To this day he will still say he doesn’t care and that simply not true. Anyway please understand I fought hard to keep my family together. He fought to keeping drinking every single day we were married for over 20 years and know and dated him since 1984. In the beginning it was a couple beers after work, turned to at least a 12 pack and up to even a case on any given day off. He couldn’t stop, doesn’t want to stop and chose it above his family. Every day!!!! I begged and pleased for even one day but it was impossible for him. He has a sever illness and refuses any treatment. Little by little tearing apart all we had built together. Im not saying Im perfect just broken and sad, very sad. I already lost a son to SIDS and mot sure if thats when things got worse. But it wasn’t healthy to be told the thing he said even if in my heart I knew it wasn’t true. The decision took years ti make and always had my boys best interest at heart. I even gave him our dream house so my boys were not traumatized any more than had to be. Its been hard for all of us. I would not ever recommend divorce, ever.

A gripping movie. Life can be so difficult.

My father was abusive to my mother and I have made sure to leave any relationship that doesn't sit well, right from the get-go. I cannot understand any woman who stays with an abusive husband if she doesn't care about herself, at least give a thought for the children that have to watch her bring abused and what that does to them.

I helped a lot of women get their legal permanent status through a provision in the immigration law that helps domestic violence victims be able to file for themselves. One thing I learned is that you don’t shame them or try to make them feel guilty. It’s really hard to leave an abusive relationship; it can sometimes lead to the death of the abused spouse. My heart goes out to all domestic violence survivors-men and women. Let’s all keep them in our prayers that they remain safe.

@@tammiepage6489 That's very true. Unfortunately abuse by women towards men or gay couples abusing their partner is extremely common but under reported because people don't take it seriously. A lot of people also think that abuse equals violence by physicality but we all know how emotional abuse works, even in a very passive way.

Just like 'The Burning Bed' with Farrah Fawcett. It was a true story too!

I will never ever understand how a human being can behave in such an abhorrent manner towards his family. It is way beyond my ability to process and comprehend. Monsters come in human form. Extremely scary 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
