I have just come to this forum. I have seen a startling amount of information and accounts of people describing systematic psychological, emotional and physical abuse which is classified as domestic violence. The mormon church seems to publicly put such emphasis on having a loving and Christ like approach to families, but I am hearing and have first hand seen the opposite which is truly saddening. Is this an epidemic or just a normal sub strata of society? Am I missing something here? Are themes of power and control and outright abuse more prevalent in the Mormon culture or are we more willing to speak about them in these forums? Is this something anyone (journalists) has formally brought to light?
