Just walk away a statement that most people makes when they have found out that a friend or family member is being abused .A question that we all ask to ourselves “why don’t they just leave ,how could they allow themselves to be placed in this type of conduction” . Many people are suffering form domestic abuse. We all have seen movies rather it was on life time or at the movies or on the health channel we all have witness the abuse happen even if it was just verbally. Domestic abuse is referred to a spouse against another and in unmarried couples. Domestic violence occurs in all cultures and people of all colors, race and religions.
Theirs had been many shelters that are available for battered women. To help them get away from their situation, these shelters was build to support and place temporary housing for women to escape for violent situation. Counseling is also available, helping these women define themselves all over again.
I believe that most women are too afraid to leave or just haven’t gotten enough but you wonder when it is ever enough for them to get the strength and courage to leave. Most situation involves kids the mother is always thinking that she needs to keep her family together and that one day things will get better for her and her husband would one day stop and realize that he is really hurting her. When will all the lies stop when will all the excuses to cover up what’s going on when you will finally reach the point where you see you can do better and just walk away.
Just walk away “it’s not that easy”

I just wanted to add something in here.
Have you ever been in a relationship where you find flaws in the one your with? I mean, you know beyond a shadow of a doubt what they are doing is driving you CRAZY but you can't seem to leave them? Despite their obvious flaws your still with them? Despite their obvious flaws you still LOVE them...
A lot of women are not just afraid to leave... they still are in love with the very man causing them pain. And even though they KNOW they should leave the abusive relationship they are in... they can't. Their head and their heart says two different things. By leaving they will be leaving the very man they love.
I guess my point is... I'm sure we have all been in relationships where there are obvious flaws with the other person. Things we know we shouldn't have to deal with but we do out of love. Why we didn't "just leave" the person is hard for others to comprehend... but to you it's not just black and white.
So, trying to figure out why the people in the abusive relationships don't "just leave" Remember that in the matters of the heart there's a lot of Grey Areas.
