25.01.2022 13 longs and arduous years for Joanne’s family but finally Joanne’s former partner was this week charged #theredflagsdv #justice

24.01.2022 warning this content of story maybe a trigger as it involves sexual assault. Perpetrators are very common to be known within the victims family circle. My older sister used to help me hide from our step grandfather when he came to our beds in the night. I can remember bare feet scampering down moonlit hallways, huddling in a wardrobe and the screen door slamming when we ran outside into the darkness. It teeters on the edge of where my memories begin, but I can still see... the shadow of him sitting by her bed. As she grew older she figured out we could evade him. At about seven years old she showed more courage than many adults I know. I was too young for his liking for some years but eventually it was my turn. I was playing my Game Boy at the kitchen table at my Nans house. I had blonde hair cut in a short bob. I wore glasses and a yellow summer dress. He asked me to come for a cuddle, patting his lap in a gesture of welcome. I didnt have a Dad. I thought maybe a cuddle from a man, any man, would be kind of like having a Dad. His hands went straight for my knickers and his crusty old fingers hurt me. I did not have a word for what he was doing but he was breathing heavily. I didnt want to get into trouble so I kept playing my Game Boy. I tried to press the buttons but my fingers wouldnt work and my heart was hitting my ribs. After a while Nan walked past the kitchen window with a basket of washing from the line and saw us. She dropped the washing and threw open the kitchen door. She held up the offending arm of her second husband and slapped it. I knew something terrible had happened because Granddad got a smack. I didnt hear what she said because I was trying to bolt and pull up my knickers at the same time. Im still running. My mind is always racing. I dont know who to trust. Im scared of the dark. Scared of being alone. It took me 24 years to work out why I harboured persistent undertones of being a disgusting person. #theredflagsdv

22.01.2022 Domestic abusers who throttle their victims but leave no mark are to face seven years in jail. Justice Secretary Robert Buckland hopes to plug a loophole that lets attackers off too lightly, thereby protecting 5,000 women a year. #coercivecontrol #emotionalabuse #strategicplanningabusersthatleavenomarks... #psychologicalabuse #theredflagsdv See more

22.01.2022 Hang in there... leaving an abuser can take time. Safety planning is essential to be able to leave an abusive partner. Depending on your situation, you might be planning to leave an abusive relationship, in the process of leaving or maybe youve already left. Or, maybe your friend or family member is experiencing abuse, and you are looking for ways to support them. Safety plans come in all shapes and sizes; they should be unique to the survivors needs in the moment. Becaus...e violence could escalate when someone tries to leave, here are some things you might consider before you leave: Keep any evidence of abuse, such as pictures of injuries, texts, emails, etc. Keep a journal of all violent incidences, noting dates, events and threats made, if possible. Keep your journal in a safe place. Know where you can go to get help. Tell someone what is happening to you. If you are injured, go to a doctor or an emergency room and report what happened to you. Ask that they document your visit. If you have children, identify a safe place for them, like a room with a lock or a friends house where they can go for help. Reassure them that their job is to stay safe, not to protect you. If you need a safe place to stay, contact your local shelter and find out about laws and other resources available to you before you have to use them during a crisis. Acquire job skills or take courses at a community college as you can. Try to set money aside or ask friends or family members to hold money for you.

21.01.2022 Sis, the inability to receive support from others is a trauma response. Your I dont need anyone, Ill just do it all myself conditioning is a survival tactic. You needed it to shield your tender heart from abuse, neglect, betrayal, and disappointment from those who could not or would not be there for you. Its trauma response. ... The good news is trauma that is acknowledged is trauma that can be healed. You are worthy of having support. You are worthy of having true partnership. You are worthy of love. You are worthy of having your heart held. You are worthy to be adored. You are worthy to be cherished. You are worthy to have someone say, You rest. I got this. And actually deliver on that promise. You are worthy to receive. You are worthy to receive. You are worthy to receive. You are worthy. Worthy, sis. You are worthy. You dont have to earn it. You dont have to prove it. You dont have to bargain for it. You dont have to beg for it. You are worthy. Worthy. Simply because you exist. I love you. ~J. #theredflagsdv

21.01.2022 It takes a lot of courage for a child to speak up and to be able to communicate their words of truth. When you hear that a child does not like that person, feels yucky in the stomach, cries around that person or simply says Im uncomfortable DONT IGNORE THESE SIGNS! Our children need protection and they rely on us as adults to do the right thing. Believe a child, let them speak, they need to be heard and believed. Take action and stand up for them. ... #saverhechildren #listenandlearn #takenote #childrenneedtobeheard #trustintheirresponses #believethem #speakup #breakingtheirsilence #theredflagsdv #sexualassualt #rape #peadophiles #familypredator #dontshutthemdown #payattentiontothesigns

20.01.2022 New reports of family violence spike in COVID-19 lockdown. Monash University surveyed 166 practitioners about family violence during the COVID-19 pandemic. 59 per cent said the frequency of violence against women had increased. Half said the severity of violence increased as well. 42 per cent said more victims were coming forward for the first time.... Perpetrators are using the pandemic to inflict new forms of violence and control. Please consider your safety and take the time to read this information carefully from Safer Families and kindly take part in the survey below Dear Survivors, The Melbourne research Alliance to End Violence Against Women and their Children (MAEVe) is conducting an online survey on the impact of COVID19 on family violence or on the way support services are accessed by victims in Australia. This anonymous survey is being conducted to find out about the impact of the COVID19 on womens safety in their homes. If you have lived experience of family violence, we would really value hearing from you. If you are an organisation that work in the area of family violence we would be grateful if you could distribute information about the survey through your networks.

20.01.2022 Very sad news as TWFSG announced great loss of one of the founding leaders of the TWFSG and President of Anthepe Town Camp. Murdered on 7th January 2021 in Alice Springs. Sending our deepest condolences #theredflagsdv

20.01.2022 We all have a duty of care to protect our children which also comes with the right to know where these peadophiles are living, within our community, when convicted and released from jail. Bruce, father of murdered schoolboy Daniel Morcombe says a government plan for a national register of child sex offenders would honour his son. A sex offender registry data base that can be accessed by the public with profile photographs, name, date of birth, and location of these mons...ters roaming our streets. This would be a free of charge accessible online webpage that would provide the necessary tools to education and create awareness of the dangers that surround us. This should also apply to convicted domestic violence perpetrators and murderers! #danielslaw #protectourchildren #theredflagsdv https://www.adelaidenow.com.au//e92e42ffdb8308e6e13dbd385a

18.01.2022 The narcissistic abuser will create a false narrative to make out that they are the victim. Gaslighting and love-bombing are just some of the consistent traits of a narcisstic abuser. #theredflagsdv

18.01.2022 Gaslighting Crazymaking Denial Manipulate ... Lie Projection Change subjects Reality games Mind games All in the aim to doubt ones own mind. To lower your self confidence, become dependent on them, take away your power, make you question your own reality, exhaust you with mind games, try to control your mind by manipulation, create a deeper toxic bond. Over time with this crafty technique you eventually lose faith in your own abilities to think, believe, memory recall, reality, and own judgment.

15.01.2022 GASLIGHTING Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse that's seen in abusive relationships. It's the act of manipulating a person by forcing them to question their thoughts, memories, and the events occurring around them. A victim of gaslighting can be pushed so far that they question their own sanity. Most of us have been gaslighted at some point in our lives, making it important to learn how to spot the technique, shut it down, and minimize the psychological impact on ou...Continue reading

13.01.2022 Convicted rapists and paedophiles in Victoria must be cheering in their jail cells today, to learn that their victims are no longer able to speak to the media, publish autobiographies, or do any kind of public advocacy work at least not under their real identities. Sexual assault survivors could face up to four months jail or fines of thousands of dollars if they speak out under their real identities post conviction. #theredflagsdv... #Letusspeak #judicialsystemisajoke #brokensystem #Corruption See more

13.01.2022 Repeated emotional abuse set to be outlawed in Queensland. Attorney-General Shannon Fentiman said she was committed to "legislate against coercive control as a form of domestic violence" but was unsure if new criminal offences would be created or existing laws would be strengthened. Ms Clarke's parents, Lloyd and Sue, have been campaigning for months for the state government to introduce laws around coercive control after Hannah endured the abuse from her killer, Rowan Baxt...er. #theredflagsdv Read article link below https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au//repeated-emotional-abuse

13.01.2022 Queensland woman hopes the story of her traumatic ordeal with deceptive ex-partner can help others. Ms Lawson met Phillip Burton six years ago. "He was tall. He was handsome, sophisticated, worldly and having served in the military a long time, I had an amazing respect for what he had done for his country. You could say I was smitten," Ms Lawson said. Burton would take her to lunch and drop her back to her office. He sent flowers. He was the perfect gentleman.... "On his first date, he told me he was a Navy SEAL," she said. "It turned out to be a lie." Ms Lawson, who is a successful Brisbane public relations executive, says before long Burton became aggressive and controlling. She said he would get angry at her for being 30 seconds late. There were certain friends he didn't want her to see. He refused to let her have certain people in her own home. He wanted to know where she was at all times, who she was with and was she lying. Margaret Lawson thought she'd fallen for a handsome former Navy Seal. But he was a violent, lying stalker. ACA described him as another Dirty John. It was this security vision and these phone recordings that brought him down. Margret Lawson was manipulated, emotionally and physically abused. Margret discloses to ACA that she wished she saw this behaviours as a pattern and shares her story to help other women identify the early warning signs. https://9now.nine.com.au//6fe6e1fe-cf4f-4d7e-910e-c0cfd9b9 #theredflagsdv

Detective Inspector Dave Drinnen described 31-year-old Aysha Batys "horrific"injuries as a result of "abhorrent behaviour". Police have found and taken several weapons as evidence....

10.01.2022 So true- a narcissists will tell your everything you want to hear. They mould their reality into yours, as if it is a perfect life, as one. Full of hopes, dreams, visions of the future together. This is all in an act false premeditated deluded reality so that you feel so in love with this amazing, kindest person. Until their mask falls off or the cracks of their narcissistic traits seep through... You are left putting all the pieces together and realising that person you... thought you knew, the one you are so deeply in love with is not real. Youve been narcissistically bluffed! #theredflagsdv

10.01.2022 Forty per cent of victims suffer brain injury Brain Injury Australia executive officer Nick Rushworth said much more understanding was required about head trauma. "The public awareness about brain injury as a result of sporting activity concussions is incredibly high," he said.... "But the awareness about the potential for brain injury for domestic and family violence is equally low." A literature review also provided evidence that brain injuries were seldom diagnosed in female victims of intimate partner violence, despite the fact that more than 80 per cent of those who attended hospital had facial injuries. Mr Rushworth said the result was "all tip and no iceberg". #theredflagsdv https://www.abc.net.au//urgent-plea-for-domestic-/12628874

10.01.2022 Narcissistic relationships are based on traumatic bonds rather than on normal connections. This is because people with narcissistic personality disorders (NPD) are incapable of mutuality, cooperation, or empathy all ingredients necessary for a healthy human relationship. In a narcissistic relationship the non-narcissist is merely an object. Narcissists participate in the relationship as a sort of token-exchange system. In essence, a narcissist believes that if you do what h...e wants then he will, in exchange, bless you with his presence. If you dont follow these rules then he will discard you; plain and simple. The problem with a relationship with a personality disordered person is that the other party operates on one set of rules, while the narcissist operates on another. #narcissist #traumabonding #unhealthyrelationships #conflict #narcissisticabuse #traumarecovery #narcissisticabusesurvivor #theredflagsdv #negativeperception #hurtpeoplehurtothers

09.01.2022 Absolutely devastating A five-year-old boy is on life support after allegedly being beaten with a piece of wood at a home in Cabramatta in south-west Sydney on Friday night. The 31-year-old mother of the boy and her 20-year-old boyfriend were arrested at the home and have since been charged with domestic violence offences.... Emergency services were called to the home about 9:50pm on Friday after reports of an assault. The child was treated at the scene by paramedics and was taken to the Childrens Hospital at Westmead where he remains in a critical condition.

08.01.2022 Zoila fell fast for the soft-spoken day laborer, moving in with him last year just two weeks after their first date. But after El Salvador imposed a strict coronavirus lockdown, she says, the man she thought she knew became an inescapable menace. The quarantine changed everything, she said. Shut inside their one-room house in rural El Salvador, he began drinking heavily. Soon, she says, he was regularly violating the coronavirus curfew and seeing other women openly. He w...ould return home at odd hours, wake her and demand meals. Drunk, he would taunt Zoila, 24 years old and pregnant, calling her worthless and threatening violence. Then one morning, she says, he grabbed her by the throat, slammed her against the wall and attempted to rape her. When she resisted, she said, the punching began, stopping only when fluid began trailing down her leg. Zoila screamed, fearing a miscarriage. #theredflagsdv

06.01.2022 Bella Marie would be turning 7. Happy Heaven Birthday! Shanann’s husband, who was convicted of murdering his pregnant wife and their innocent little girls simply because he wanted to start a new life with his mistress. As a woman you’re aware that you could be killed by your partner on average one woman a week is killed by their partner in Australia, a disgustingly high figure.... One man every 29 days is killed by their partner, also far, far too high. But you tell yourself you’d know if you met someone who’d murder you, you’d see the signs it would be obvious. Of course, that isn’t the case at all and Chris Watts highlights that you can never really know someone, even if they’re your soulmate. There are certainly domestic violence red flags to watch out for but Chris Watts may not even have raised any of those. On the day he was planning to murdered his wife and kids, he and Shanann share a typically mundane text exchange. What kind of vegetables do you want with dinner tonight? Shanann texted Chris. Broccoli works, he responded. Green beans work, too. Next to the word broccoli Chris used a little broccoli emoji. It’s a tiny thing but that emoji shows how ‘normal’ everything was for Shanann. She was texting about groceries and he was adding little emojis in his reply and he was also planning to kill her. She didn’t have a chance. Chris Watts doesn’t fit the narrative we’ve created of a domestic abuser in our heads. As far as we know Chris Watts didn’t ever hit Shanann or his girls. His text messages weren’t abusive and there’s no reports of friends thinking there was ‘something off’ about him. He was having an affair but that’s nothing new. He’d gotten fit at the gym and fancied himself as something special, also not a crime. It’s like he went from zero to murder in a matter of weeks. Chris Watts is now in prison for the rest of his life for the savage murders of Shanann, Bella and Celeste. Shanann’s family and friends have to live forever with what Chris Watts did. As little kids we’re terrified of monsters that could be living under our bed but Shanann’s was sharing her bed with one and she had no idea. And that’s the scariest thing about Chris Watts. #theredflagsdv https://amp.news.com.au///0425c4c490d865ff4055c42929fab2db

06.01.2022 RIP Stephanie Lee Robinson #2021violencemurder #theredflagsdv

06.01.2022 Sorry with no change in behaviour- is not a sorry. Do not be fooled by a narcissists apology. Realize that the relationship is no different than it was before the apology you just now have more confusion on your plate (think, cognitive dissonance). You believe that maybe they mean theyre sorry or that they wont do whatever it was that they did again. But, rest assured, the narcissist uses an apology as part of the cycle of abuse.... When you receive an apology from a narcissist you believe at least four things: He/she is truly sorry. He/she wont do it again. He/she sees what he/she did as wrong. Things will be better in your relationship. Pay attention here. These four things will not happen. This is the truth: He/she is not truly sorry; he/she is managing your relationship and managing his/her appearance to others. He/she will do the exact same thing again, and again. He/she just believes theyre getting themselves off the hook for doing something wrong that got noticed. He/she doesnt care how his/her behavior has impacted you, and they never will. He/she just knows that by apologising they appear to care and he/she now has a trump card or get out of jail free card to use if you try to hold him/her accountable for his/her behavior. Things will remain the same in the relationship. #manipulation #excuse #dismiss #avoid #continuation #badbehaviour #notsorry #actionsspeaklouderthanwords #fake #ego #gaslighting #sorrynotsorry #narcissisticabuse #watchtheiractions #domesticviolence #theredflagsdv

04.01.2022 MIND GAMES is when their words and actions don't match. For example, you say you want a relationship but you never commit the time, energy or emotional investment to make that relationship possible. They have double standards to what they say and to what they actually do. They twist scenarios and their words to suit them, according to the situation. (Lies, twisted stories and truth, manipulation, minimalizing, crazy making, disregarding your feelings, inconsiderate, denyi...ng, pretending, gaslighting, shaming, making you feel insecure, pre-empt jealousy, guilt tripping). Walk away from people that play mind games with you. Trust your intuition when you feel that things are not quite right. The feeling you get in your stomach first and then take note of the way that person makes you feel. Mind games can be subtle but trust your inner self to not let this person neg you or pull your self esteem down. Mind games create self doubt, insecurity, vulnerability, and second guessing yourselfwhich is all in the aim to chip into your confidence and self worth.
