- This is a video clip from In Their Own Words: Domestic Abuse in Later Life, produced by the National Clearinghouse on Abuse in Later Life (NCALL) and Terra Nova Films. Funded by the Office for Victims of Crime, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice. 2008.
In Their Own Words is a two-DVD package and training guide, which uses the voices of older victims to facilitate a dialog among a range of professionals about the dynamics of abuse, the barriers these victims have to overcome to live free from abuse, and interventions and potential collaborations that may be effective in such cases. In addition to individual segments with victims, family members, victim service providers, and allied professionals, the DVDs include several topical segments and a montage of victim and advocate voices designed for use by policymakers. It also includes an interactive role play between a parish nurse and an adult daughter caring for her father intended to help professionals recognize justifications for elder mistreatment. A trainer’s guide, which accompanies these DVDs, provides background on the victims and discussion questions targeted at a variety of professional audiences.

Makes you wonder how many men go through this and never ask for help.
I’m sorry you went through this horrible abuse. These monstrous people seem to prey on nice, mild-mannered folks. They never get with someone just as evil and crazy as they are. Why would they? They want someone they can bully and dominate and it wouldn’t be fun if they got a taste of their own medicine. I’m glad you were able to get away. Bless you.
A lovely man, I'm so happy he got away.
What is wrong with these sick people?!? Monsters!
As the old folks say, “they got the devil in them”. But I believe it’s a personality disorder called Narcissism.
The surprise attack.
Not many women are stronger than a man
He’s a good man who doesn’t fight violence with violence. Your comment is extremely baiting and rude. Good men can be taken advantage of by violent women, no matter their strength level.
While dating her, didn't you see the red flags of her behavior?
Obviously not. That is such a loaded question, you obviously do not understand & lack empathy.
Don’t ask victim blaming questions.
Narcissists and sociopaths wear a figurative mask. They do not show you who they are until after they feel you are stuck with them, either via pregnancy or coercing you to quit your job and be dependent on them financially. They never go to level 10 of abuse immediately. It always starts small and the victim wants so badly to believe that it is an anomaly, brought on by some external factor, so they stay and try to help. When it happens again, there are tears and apologies and promises and guilt trips. And the victim doesn’t want to uproot the family, etc., so they stay, and for a while it’s great. But soon they are trying to break your spirit again, with tantrums, insults, put downs, etc. And now it gets even worse because they don’t believe you have the guts to leave. By this time, the victim thinks they have to stay so the kids have their parent. Before you know it, years of your life have been sucked away.
