Financial Control and Exploitation in Abusive Relationships

Описание: Domestic violence is more than just physical and psychological abuse. Often time, abusers want to take complete control over their partner. A financial or economic abuse is an effective way to take control over somebody. In this video, Professor Angela Littwin of University of Texas Law School will help you identify economic abuse and help you protect yourself.

Domestic violence is about more than physical and psychological abuse. Abusers usually want to take complete control of their partner, and financial abuse is an effective way to gain control over someone. Abusers can do this by controlling your money, or making you owe a lot of money. This limits your options, and makes it more likely that you'll do what your partner wants. Financial abuse is a type of domestic violence that can occur in relationships and marriages. Angel Littwin provides thoughts on dealing with financial abuse in relationships and financial exploitation in marriages.
