When Dad Hurts Mom offers comfort, understanding, and a concrete plan of action to any woman concerned about the distress being caused to her children by her angry, controlling, or abusive partner. Studies have shown that children's exposure to domestic abuse is linked to virtually every category of emotional and behavioral problems. And that number would be even greater if we include children who have watched their mothers be verbally abused and intimidated.

In this groundbreaking book, a leading expert on domestic abuse and its effects turns his unique perspective on the littlest victims of spousal abuse-the children.
