Abstract

Domestic violence is a global phenomenon, which spreads in all countries regardless of geographical location, religion or ethnicity. In most studies related to domestic violence, two aspects are considered when discussing domestic violence; violence against women and violence against children. Women and children are the most vulnerable groups to domestic violence in all societies. Arab and Western researchers agree that domestic violence is violence against women and children but they differ in the method of discussing the problem. Arab researchers talk about violence against women in general. While Western researchers, talk into violence against specific groups of women, for example, domestic violence against (pregnant women, women with mental and psychological disorders, women with physical disabilities). There are some studies in the works of Western researchers on assessment of the treatment programs for victims and perpetrators of domestic violence has been studied by Western researches.
