ABUSE IS ANY VERBAL OR PHYSICAL ACTION USED TO CONTROL OR HARM SOMEONE. IT CAN BE PSYCHOLOGICAL, FINANCIAL, PHYSICAL, SEXUAL, CULTURAL OR EVEN SPIRITUAL ABUSE. FAMILY VIOLENCE IS ABUSE AT THE HANDS OF SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU. THIS COULD BE YOUR PARTNER, ADULT CHILDREN, PARENT, IN-LAW, FRIEND, SISTER OR BROTHER. PEOPLE WHO ABUSE DO SO AGAINST THE WILL OF THEIR VICTIMS, WHO NEVER ASK OR CHOOSE TO BE ABUSED.
