Children are often considered the “hidden” victims in families where domestic violence occurs.  Studies have estimated that 3.3 – 10 million children witness domestic violence each year.

Children can show a variety of problems, due to exposure to domestic violence.  For example, it can prevent their success in school and other social settings.

Also, 30% to 60% of perpetrators of domestic violence abuse children in the household.
