NSW hotline for women to ask about partners’ past convictions could give false sense of security, critics warn

There are men and boys who are victims of domestic violence and abuse too, but there is very little help for them. If you really want to stamp out domestic violence and abuse then step up and help innocent men and boys too. Increase the punishment of violent abuse as well to get the message across.

Men are often too embarrassed to report violence against them; and children are often prevented from reporting violence and abuse. I ask the government to man up and step up to help anyone who is a victim of violence and abuse. Do you have any idea how hard it is for men or boys to get help? The government has a duty of care to protect anyone that is a victim of abuse and violence.
