Vold i hjemmet

Jægersoldater fra Underdanmark kan allerede i ung alder klare sig alene uden mad og søvn i dagevis. De har lært, at man ikke kan stole på nogen, allermindst sine forældre, og det at overleve er op til en selv. Støtte og omsorg kender de ikke til. Zornig, Lindholm og Turéll har sat sig for at finde frem til de karaktertræk, som kendetegner de stærke brændte børn, Underdanmarks jægersoldater, så vi af dem kan lære, hvordan vi bliver bedre til at hjælpe alle udsatte børn. Gennem samtaler med ti voksne supermønsterbrydere om deres barske opvækst hører vi om deres livsstrategier og overlevelsesmekanismer, og hvad der har gjort en forskel for dem og hjulpet dem til at bryde mønsteret. I bogen medvirker politiker Pia Olsen Dyhr, arkitekt Gitte Andersen, professor Jørgen Lange, bokser Dennis Ceylan, borgmester Erik Nielsen, debattør Mads Holger, journalist Claus Elgaard, forfatter Kristian Ditlev Jensen, lærer Karin Schwartz og sikkerhedssupervisor Lasse Mortensen.

Sidst i marts 2021 dræber en 61-årig mand sin 62-årige ekskone i Horsens. Den dræbte er forfatteren Niels Franks søster, Elin. Knap tre måneder tidligere har Elin forladt sin mand gennem 30 år og faren til deres to voksne sønner. De næste uger flytter hun rundt mellem hemmelige adresser i Horsens, inden hun til sidst flytter ind på et krisecenter – hele tiden i frygt for, hvad hendes eksmand, der har brugt de sidste mange år på at ydmyge og skælde hende ud, kan finde på.Den dag bodelingen skal foregå, ringer Niels Franks telefon klokken 8.32, og så ved han, at det er gået galt.FANDEN TAGE DIG af Niels Frank er beretningen om tiden op til drabet og om tiden bagefter – om sorgen, vreden og afmagten, begravelsen, efterforskningen og retssagen. Om hvorfor mænd dræber kvinder, og hvorfor det er  så forbandet forudsigeligt.

Når man lever i et forhold med både fysisk og psykisk vold, så kan svaret udefra været ret simpelt: ”Så gå dog fra ham!” Ingen ville nogensinde kunne se logikken i at blive hængende i seks år og endda sætte børn i verden under sådanne forhold, når man ikke selv har været der. Så gå dog fra ham! fortæller om, hvorfor Luna Munk alligevel valgte at blive i seks år i et forhold med vold og psykisk terror, hvordan hun mistede sig selv undervejs, og hvordan hun flygtede fra de åbenlyse problemer og påtog sig hele ansvaret for familien. Og så er det også historien om, hvordan Luna evnede at finde lykke og tryghed i et utrygt miljø. Bogen er Lunas egen ærlige beretning om de mange svære tanker og følelser, hun havde gennem årene. Det er hendes håb, at bogen kan sætte kærlighedens ofte destruktive magt i perspektiv og forklare, hvorfor omverdenens ”Så gå dog fra ham!” ikke er et råd, der er så nemt at følge, som man skulle tro. Uddrag af bogenJeg lå bare på der på gulvet i fosterstilling, jeg trak vejret intenst og følte, at mit liv var slut, jeg var helt sikker på, at mit hoved var smurt ind i blod, jeg var sikker på, at jeg var gul og blå over det hele, og at jeg nu aldrig kunne forklare mig ud af den her til omverdenen. Jeg rejste mig op og gik ud og kiggede mig selv i spejlet, der var ikke et eneste mærke at se udover de rødsprængte øjne. Jeg tog mig selv i at smile bredt, for jeg vidste, at der stadig var en chance, vi kunne stadig godt finde vejen sammen, det krævede blot, at han kom hjem til mig igen. Om forfatteren Luna Munk (f. 1993) er studerende og enlig mor til tre små børn. Hun er kendt fra tv-programmet De unge mødre, hvor hun med sit ofte anderledes syn på moderskab både forarger og skaber forundring.

De bliver set som rockernes ejendom og mindre værd end klubben, brødrene og deres motorcykler.“Jeg så min søn tage kvælertag på min datter ud af det blå. Han havde set sin mor blive kvalt mange gange før, og så gjorde han det pludselig selv på sin egen lillesøster. Jeg græd og tænkte ’fuck’. Deres far kunne kneppe udenom, og han kunne slå mig, men det her betød, at jeg var nødt til at planlægge at forlade ham.”Regitze er en af kvinderne bag vesten – en af dem, der lever i skyggen af enrocker. Hendes navn er opdigtet af hensyn til hendes sikkerhed, og hun er en af seks kvinder, der hudløst ærligt fortæller om livet med en mand fra en af de klubber, som historisk er kendt for at hylde broderskab, motorcykler og frihed.Bogen inviterer læseren indenfor i den for de fleste ukendte og lukkede rockerverden og beskriver den afstumpethed, der følger med et kriminelt miljø, som er skabt af mænd, drevet af mænd og kun for mænd. Kvinderne er rockernes ejendom og betragtes som mindre værd end klubben, brødrene og deres motorcykler.Bogen er blevet til gennem dybdegående research og kildearbejde og på baggrund af lange interview med dem, det handler om: “Kvinderne bag vesten”.

Ifølge forfatteren Susanne Staun har medierne – bevidst eller ubevidst – i årevis misinformeret den offentlighed, de er sat i verden for at informere – fordi de kan, fordi de ikke kan lade være. De elsker en god historie, hellere god end sand. I Mediernes møgkællinger viser Susanne Staun, hvordan medievirkeligheden skabes med alle propagandaens virkemidler, så det ligner et karaktermord på et helt køn, eftersom medierne efterviseligt har haft held til at forme den offentlige bevidsthed ved konsekvent misinformation i tæt samarbejde med interesseorganisationer: Mødre er onde kvinder, der fremsætter falske anklager og bruger alle de væmmelige tricks med det formål at monopolisere deres børn og efterlade en hale af grædende fædre i deres kølvand. Men hverken statistikker eller den aktuelt bedste viden fra nationale og internationale forskere kan levere dokumentation for den virkelighed, medierne præsenterer.

Covert narcissists use nuanced manipulation to get what they want from others.Withholding information or giving false information is a common tactic that covert narcissists use to maintain control over a situation or bolster their own agenda.It is hard for people with this personality type to have healthy boundaries with others because of underlying feelings of guilt and excessive responsibility for other people's actions.It's easy to overlook what kind of person you're dealing with because they do not show their true colours right from the start.Covert narcissists are good at manipulating relationships with people who care about them. They put on a friendly social mask that hides their true intent.They also tend to be less obvious than overt narcissists who fly off the handle in anger or act out in public without thinking about consequences for othersThough covert narcissism may be less conspicuous than overt narcissism, yet it is no less damaging! They are experts at acting both joyful and upset with us at the same time. Or they make insulting compliments to us. By the end of the book you will discover: - History of Narcissism- How to spot a covert narcissist- Covert narcissists manipulation tactics- Strategies Before and After the Relationship- Stages of Narcissistic relationship- Effects of Covert Narcissistic Abuse- Dealing with a Covert Narcissist- ... and much more!

Der er 536 grunde til at lytte til denne bog. Det er antallet af kvinder dræbt i Danmark mellem 1992 og 2016. I de senere år er kvindedrab kommet på den internationale dagsorden og har også fået en øget bevågenhed herhjemme. Langt de fleste kvinder bliver dræbt af en mand, oftest i deres eget hjem og stort set altid af en i deres familie eller blandt deres nærmeste. Hverken eksperter, politikere eller meningsdannere er nødvendigvis enige om, hvad vi som samfund kan og skal gøre ved det. Men faktisk findes der forskning, som har identificeret en række faktorer, der øger risikoen for drab på kvinder – og som dermed også åbner for en mulighed for at kunne forudsige og forebygge dem.I EN FORUDSIGELIG FORBRYDELSE kortlægger journalist Line Vaaben og retsmediciner, ph.d., Asser Hedegård Thomsen kvindedrab i Danmark. Med baggrund i data fra Asser Hedegård Thomsens forskning og interviews med knap 40 eksperter fra Danmark og udlandet fører de os igennem, hvad vi i dag ved om drab på kvinder i håb om bedre at kunne kvalificere samtalen og samfundsindsatsen mod kvindedrab.Samtidig genfortælles syv kvinders livshistorie og skæbne. Seks blev dræbt, en overlevede. En stærk og uafrystelig bog.

Lilli ved, der findes drager. For der bor en hjemme hos hende. Så man må liste på tæer og sørge for at rydde grundigt op efter sig og ikke fylde ret meget. Eller noget, overhovedet.Gro Dahle og Svein Nyhus har med Dragen skabt en nøje afbalanceret fortælling om en mors psykiske vold og vrede, der lægger sig som en kvælende røg over huset og datterens liv. Og om, at der ikke bare findes drager, men også dragetæmmere, som ved, hvordan man hjælper børn i sådanne situationer.Andre bøger på dansk af Dahle og Nyhus er bl.a. Bag Mumme bor Moni, Vrede mand, Silkesød, Akvarium og Blæksprutten.

Der var en gang en lille sjæl, som ønskede at lære endnu mere. Den kiggede sig omkring og talte med sine guidere og vejledere om, hvad der var det optimale og allerbedste. Til sidst fandt den lille sjæl en far og en mor, med præcis de kvaliteter, der skulle til, så sjælen kunne lære lige nøjagtig det, som var ønsket og nødvendigt. Den lille sjæl kom til verden en forårsdag i april 1962. "Det var aften, og tremmesengen stod i værelset, lidt bag døren. Jeg var lagt i seng og faldet i søvn. Da jeg lidt senere vågnede, kaldte jeg på min mor, men hun kom ikke. Jeg græd, følte mig fortabt, og ulykkelig. Ingen kom, så jeg satte mig ned igen, helt opløst i gråd og lagde mig til sidst til at sove igen. Jeg var ikke dengang bevidst om, hvad der skete, og hvorfor, eller hvilken betydning det havde for mig, kun at jeg gav op og lagde mig til at sove igen. Min mor kunne jo ikke vide, at jeg ville kalde på hende. Ej heller kunne hun vide, at jeg drog en betydningsfuld konklusion efter hændelsen - som skulle følge mig gennem livet." Denne bog er skrevet, for at skildre en dybere mening med dette livs begivenheder. Hændelserne anskues fra et højere perspektiv, gennem intuitionen og hjertets sandhed, hvor indsigt, om hensigten bag handlingerne bliver synliggjort, for forståelsen af læringen. Og du bliver taget med på rejse i et helt almindeligt liv, hvor hovedpersonens liv, med udfordrende oplevelser af svigt, incest og overgreb, betragtes fra det ubevidste ego-perspektivs rejse mod sjælens klare bevidsthed. Du ser, hvordan alle begivenhederne, har en vigtig betydning for den personlige udvikling og udfoldelse af et menneskes potentiale, og hvor en afklarende indsigt og bevidsthed, betyder alverden for ro og balance i livet.

En dør, der er forseglet og aldrig forsøgt åbnet, lirkes med største forsigtighed på klem. Ud af den lille sprække vælter råddenskab, vold, afmagt – og frem for alt: en altædende ensomhed. ”De var bundet sammen med kæder, og længst ude, hvor blikket næsten ikke kunne nå, så han omridset af en færge, som trak byens både væk fra havnen. Der var ingen bevægelse i det, og måske, tænkte han, er det her et maleri, som jeg på én eller anden måde er fanget i.” Jacob, blandt venner kaldet Frost, er en ung dreng, hvis drømme, illusioner og håb forsvinder. Tilbage er et liv i skyggen med tæsk og overfald. Lys, kærlighed og venner der aldrig svigter siver også ud af den lille sprække, men er det sandt, at kærlighed kan overvinde alt? Er det nok til at holde livet i gang? Gespenst er en roman om, hvordan livet ser ud de steder, hvor ingen kigger, dér hvor få har adgang, og dér hvor håbet siver hen, når det forsvinder.

"In this electrifying literary memoir, Kate Hamilton deftly traces her complicated journey from loving wife to gaslit victim to furious feminist with an urgent goal: to expose how women are pressured to uphold the institutions of marriage and family, no matter the cost. In the tradition of Know My Name and The Argonauts, Hamilton braids her own story with cultural criticism to argue that we must face the misogyny lurking in the shadows of marriage in the 21st century. She examines the beliefs and conditioning that held her in an increasingly destructive marriage and unflinchingly documents what she did to keep her family together-therapy, unwanted sex with her husband, swinging, affairs, an abortion-without always knowing what she freely chose. And she considers the damage that was done, to herself and others, until she could acknowledge that to save herself and her sons, she had to destroy her marriage. Emotionally intense and timely, Mad Wife interrogates how marriage and the institutions that support it provide the perfect ecosystem for abuse of women and children, endangering their lives and denying them autonomy-all in the service of men's desires"--

Narcissism in romantic relationships is often understood to be gender specific-with the man perpetrating the abuse and the woman on the receiving end. While this is certainly the case in many instances, Releasing Your Need to Please is written to explore the growing phenomenon of women who perpetrate narcissistic abuse-and the men who try to please them. Narcissism is a disorder that stems from childhood trauma. A narcissistic female (a girlfriend or wife) is an extremely wounded personality who, at her core, feels empty, powerless, unlovable, and entitled. In order to soothe her deep insecurities and aching needfulness, she requires a love partner to make her feel better about herself. A narcissistic woman sees her partner as a means to an end-an external source of validation and love-to fill her emptiness and internal feelings of powerlessness. Given their self-absorbed nature, narcissistic women always attract a specific personality type-people pleasers. Pleasers, too, have childhood trauma and low self-esteem in romantic relationships, and as a result, bend over backwards to make their narcissistic counterpart happy. Often compromising themselves to gain approval (or stop the abuse), pleasers lose themselves in the process-and end up living a false, inauthentic life. Putting their feelings and needs on the back burner, they internalize the anger and manipulation of their mate. By the time male partners seek counselling, they are exhausted-second-guessing themselves-and feeling as though they might be going crazy. Some do not recognize the control and manipulation they are experiencing. Others know they are being abused, yet do not wish to do anything productive about it. Yet all pleasers feel trapped inside the abusive relationship-often feeling too weak or defeated to make any changes. Staying with a narcissistic woman is the result of the pleaser's low self-esteem and unresolved childhood trauma. Pleasers are terrified to make the courageous decision to separate-and doubt they have the strength to stay away. Hence, they seek to fix the abusive relationship by accepting responsibility for the abuse. While pleasers justify staying in the relationship, they lose themselves in the process. Throughout the book, the message is clear. While the pleaser has been victimized by narcissistic abuse, he can choose to see himself as a victim without choice-or choose to empower himself, develop self-esteem, and permanently escape. Releasing Your Need to Please teaches the reader how to put himself first-by learning to like, trust, and respect himself. This process begins with accepting he has no other reasonable choice-but to escape his chains of abuse. This book will take the reader on a courageous, empowering, and rewarding journey-and help him gradually (and powerfully) release himself from his own chains (his need to please)-while, at the same time, break his mate's chains of control, anger, manipulation, and exploitation.

Am I Crazy?From the outside, Sharon had it all. But her picture-perfect life was not what it seemed. What she didn't know at the time was that she was being psychologically manipulated by a malignant narcissist who trapped her in an abusive cycle of hoovering, devaluation, and explosive anger--with a whole lot of gaslighting, word salad, and breadcrumbing thrown in for good measure.Today, many of these words are becoming better known, but during Sharon's toxic enmeshment with her narcissistic spouse, these things were not yet fully understood- let alone talked about.Nearly 20 years of torment caused Sharon to doubt everything, including her own reality. She wondered, "Is it me? Am I crazy?" Enduring decades of mental and emotional abuse resulted in a complete lack of identity where she no longer knew who she was or who she wanted to be. When the straw finally broke the camel's back (in this case a dead squirrel tumbled out of a wall), Sharon found the strength to stop the madness and regain control of her life.In Girl Gone Glad, Sharon uses wit and wisdom to share the lessons she learned post divorce that changed her life. Years of research and in-depth conversations with hundreds of other narcissistic abuse survivors led her on a journey to discover her most authentic self. She shares the Red Flags of Narcissism, Symptoms of Narcissistic Abuse, and some basic facts about narcissistic personality disorder, including how to heal from narcissistic abuse and some motivational tips that helped her along the way.Sharon is a midlife single, narcissistic abuse survivor. These are the revelations that healed her ... and can heal you too!

In this raw and searing memoir, one woman recalls her romantic relationship with a pathological liar who betrayed her and many other women, exploring the trauma he caused and the sisterhood that formed despite--and in spite of--him.In January 2017, Chimene Suleyman arrived at a women's health clinic in Queens, New York, to undergo an abortion, accompanied by her boyfriend, the father of her nascent child. After reluctantly going through with the procedure, she returned to the waiting room to find it empty. Her boyfriend had fled. It was the last time they were together. In an extraordinary sequence of events, she eventually discovered the truth: that the man she she'd loved had gaslit, lied to, stolen from, and painfully betrayed her and many other women like her.Spellbinding and soul-baring, The Chain explores the havoc one man wreaked on the lives of the many unsuspecting women who believed the stories he told, about his various illnesses, his dying mother, his career and professional prospects, and his undying love and commitment. It also chronicles how these women came together to both expose him and to support each other in the wake of his destruction.Examining how women fall prey to manipulative men, Suleyman questions society's complicity in allowing those who would do women harm to flourish and contemplates why others remain silent witnesses by accepting and normalizing shameless behavior towards women. She demonstrates how women themselves are acculturated to perform prescribed roles of giver and nurturer, to be self-sacrificing and subordinate, and to bolster the egos of others by remaining silent and ignoring their own protective instincts.Both a devastating personal testimony and a searing indictment of persistent misogyny, The Chain is a book for any woman who has questioned her relationship and buried her doubts and for any woman who has been sheltered by the fierce protection of her female friends.

Hej, Danmark, jeg kender en kvinde er en dokumentarisk førstehåndsberetning om den unge kvinde Connys møde med vold i ægteskabet, og hvordan hun kom ud af forholdet.I bogen fortæller Conny om, hvordan en forelskelse udviklede sig til et ægteskab, der senere blev til grov hustruvold med korporlig afstraffelse over bagateller eller uden nogen grund overhovedet.Conny fortæller åbent om den evige angst, hun gik i, og om hvordan hun forsøgte at undgå konfrontationerne med den voldelige mand.Conny fortæller desuden om, hvordan den vold, hun havde været ude for, gjorde, at hun i nogen tid efter forholdets afslutning forfaldt til et overmåde alkoholmisbrug afledt af den evige angst for at møde den tidligere ægtemand.Conny kom ud af misbruget ved at gennemføre en selvpåtaget voldsom afvænning, der krævede opbydelsen af hele hendes enorme viljestyrke.
