Quiz: How is your relationship?-Take the quiz!

Hi, everyone. Thanks for stopping by. I'm posting a quiz for you or someone you know that may be in an abusive relationship.

Does your partner:
1. Embarrass you with bad names and put-downs?
2. Look at you or act in ways that scare you?
3. Control what you do, who you see or talk to, or where you go?
4. Stop you from seeing or talking to friends or family?
5. Take your money or Social Security, make you ask for money, or refuse to give you money?
6. Make all the decisions?
7. Tell you you're a bad parent or threaten to take away or hurt your children?
8. Act like the abuse is no big deal, or it's your fault, or even deny doing it?
9. Destroy your property or threatens to kill your pets?
10. Intimidate you with guns, knives, or other weapons?
11. Shove you, slap you or hit you?
12. Force you to drop charges?
13. Threatens to commit suicide?
14. Threatens to kill you?

If you have answered even one, you may be in an abusive relationship. If you need to talk, call: 1-800-799-7233 (National Domestic Violence Hot Line)or,
1-800-787-3224 (TTY FOR THE DEAF)

Let others know about this quiz. Seek help. Get out if you are in fear. (Fear: #1 reason victims do not leave.)There are many resouces to help you. Check your local Domestic Violence or Victim Assistance office.

The greatest gift a woman can give herself and her children is to get out of an abusive relationship. She or they do not in any way deserve abuse.
Abuse is a learned behavior. It can be unlearned. It is in any walk of life. If the abuser is willing to admit he is abusive, violent, and controlling, he must seek help and be willing to change. If not, he will remain the same. You cannot change him. You can only change you as to what you accept or are willing to put up with or die for.

My best to you,
Becky Conrad
