Women's Aid Farah Nazeer Society of Labour Lawyers I would say it’s worse because you expect once you find the courage to leave the abuser you will be protected but instead you are forced to defend yourself all over again.

#DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth Raise awareness of legal systems abuse: how perpetrators use family court proceedings as a tool of abuse, and manipulate professionals into their strategy. Claims of parental alienation are included in the repertoire of legal systems abuse

“Coercive control is not a symptom of mental illness, nor an inability to control one’s temper. Rather it is a deliberate course of conduct designed to secure privileges by subordinating women & children, depriving them of rights and resources they need to thrive.” -E Stark
