[quote=Anonymous]It is domestic violence. The act is violent, even if it is not a physical assault. Ask the same question, what if the child care provider / teacher that your child sees daily did the same thing? Or if a boss did something like that? It would be domestic violence and there would certainly be room for a legal prosecution. In a marriage, the exact same behaviors are no more acceptable. Punching a hole in a wall (damaging property to intimidate), throwing things (creating a harmful environment) is domestic violence. From the Department of Justice: "We define domestic violence as a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner. Domestic violence can be physical, sexual, emotional, economic, or psychological actions or threats of actions that influence another person." https://www.justice.gov/ovw/domestic-violence [/quote]
