Alcohol Abuse Causes Domestic Violence?

by admin

Does alcohol abuse cause domestic violence or is it just up to the person?
But why would the alcohol cause the violence. Is it bc a person gains more strenth when under influence. Do you think they would do it if they were sober?
Like some of you said that alcohol does not trigger the violence then what does? is it in their genes or maybe they have been abused in their child hood?

Alcohol is a contributing factor, or as abusers call it, an "excuse", but it does not cause violence.

People cause violence. Alcohol may release inhibitions, and make it easier for an abuser to justify his actions, but alcohol will not make a non-violent person abusive.

The "trigger" could be several things, and studies show an abused person is more likely to be an abuser. Most abusers just have a need to be in control.
