- “How to Respond, Most victims of abuse respond in a rational way. They explain themselves and believe that the abuser is interested in what they have to say. This lets abusers know that they’ve won and have control over you. You must design your own strategy and not react, thereby not rewarding the abusive behavior. You can do this by not engaging or by responding in an unpredictable way, such as with humor, which throws an abuser off-guard. You can also ask for the behavior you want, set limits, and confront the abuse. Most victims do the opposite and placate and appease an abuser to deescalate tension and risk of harm. It never works. Abuse continues.” “The Truth about Domestic Violence and Abusive Relationships.” Darlene Lancer, JD, LMF. https://www.gracepointwellness.org/poc/view_index.php?idx=119&d=1&w=8&e=46511, www.darlenelancer.com and www.whatiscodependency.com, is where you can get a free copy of “14 Tips for Letting Go.” Find her on www.youtube.com, Twitter @darlenelancer, and Facebook.
