Hello. Our topic today is Violence. First, let's start with the definition and types of violence. Violence means using brute force or harsh behavior against someone who has an opposing position or opinion, showing this physically, sexually, psychologically or economically. Physical violence is the use of one's brute force on another individual in a way that can be felt and its effects can be observed. Psychological violence is the behavior of a person to wear out, upset and hurt the other party with verbal expressions. Economic violence is the invisible material needs of the person who is financially dependent on him/her. Sexual violence is forcing the opposite sex to have sex without their consent or engaging in sexual behavior and attitudes that the other party does not want during consensual intercourse. According to research, most people are victims of physical and psychological violence!
As people generally agree, the party subjected to violence is always the victim, but when we look at it on the other hand, the person who uses violence is another victim. Here, the primary thing to do to prevent violence is to understand the pathology of the perpetrator. We must first start this work with the family they grew up in, the environments they grew up in, and the mistakes and disruptions there. Violence is a transferential thing. A person living in a house where violence exists will learn to be violent thanks to that house, and will most likely do the same to his own circle in the future. This is supported by the Social Learning Theory defined by Bandura. According to this theory, people (especially children!) learn many behaviors by watching and modeling. There is an important point that one should realize here; The person is responsible not only for his own behavior, but also for the individuals with whom he constantly deals and whose personality development he affects. On the other hand, there may be factors outside the family. You may be very respectful individuals at home, but if the child commits violence despite this, it is the circle of friends, television, etc. that the child deals with. If there are programs, it is necessary to question the iPad phone and the applications on them.
Remember, the first reaction and limit you set in such situations is very important. Years later, someone who has been violent towards you It may be difficult to convince you to seek help from an expert. However, if you clearly express your reaction and boundaries when you first see and feel violence, you will have more opportunity to correct that person.
