ORDER FOR PROTECTION
The wheel  shows
the different
behaviors used
by an abuser to
maintain control
over the victim.
The popular
belief of
domestic abuse
is that it is almost
always physical
and/or sexual
violence which
controls victims.
The truth is that
often power and
control is
maintained by far
more subtle, but
very damaging
behaviors like
those on the
wheel.
