Being comfortably off doesn't mean that there is no domestic abuse, in a way it can make economic abuse easier. Very sadly men do go on to kill, look at the case of Claire and Charlotte Hart, and how the sons Luke and Ryan have gone on to campaign. You are always looking over your shoulder when you have been married to an abusive man, whether or not he was physically or emotionally abusive or both. Out of the blue they can pop up and you wonder what the hell they're going to do. I'd recommend to anyone who had the slightest doubt whether their other half is abusive to do the freedom programme, it helped me see how so many things he'd done were nasty and controlling, that it was abuse, just as much as the violence, it really affects you deep inside even years afterwards, it is helpful to recognise it as abuse so you can start moving on from the years of being told and others being told how horrible you are
