Controlling or coercive behaviour in an intimate or family relationship is against the law
An expert has revealed the tell-tale signs of coercive control and what not to say to a friend who is being manipulated. Since 2015 controlling or coercive behaviour in an intimate or family relationship has been officially criminalised.
“An abuser is also likely to put you down and erode your confidence by humiliating, degrading and dehumanising you.” “Plan to leave at a time when you know your partner won’t be around. Try and take everything you will need with you, for example important documents relating to you and your children. If possible, it is a good idea to set aside a small amount of money, or even open a separate bank account.
“You must also remember to look after yourself, too, as domestic abuse can affect family and friends as well.”
