heres 50 reasons why victims of DA stay, or participate in further abuse. And I am not condoning their actions, I do think they should face punishment, but there is an actual change in your brain function when you are in an abusive relationship. It is crazy, how you can be completely blinded and unaware just how bad it is until one day you aren't. Some people can manipulate you into becomming something you never ever thought you would. Of course, most victims like these girls were extremely vulnerable to begin with.
