Twenty Four Hours Upper Class Women
2,027 words
In a conversation with my girlfriend about
battered women, she said, "I'd never put up with
that" and then asked, "Why would a woman stay in
an abusive relationship?" As relationships
progress, there are more emotional and financial
ties which makes it harder to leave. The average
woman will leave her abuser seven or eight times
before making the final break. Women may be afraid
of strangers, but it is a husband, a lover, a
boyfriend, or someone they know who is most likely
to harm them. Accordi...

years to complete. They do, however, give us some
insight into how the human mind works and develops

them, and to a person with no background in
psychology it is almost impossible. The following
