Abstract- Violence in general is a very complex issue that has many definitions in one single society. Each society has its own definition or rather definitions of violence for the reason that the latter lives under different conditions and have access to a variety of perceptions of violence as a concept. Violence changes our lives, affects our understandings of life, raises our awareness, harms our bodies and minds, and finally treats us as in an inhumane way. It neglects our rights and regards us as objects and victims who are unable to defend themselves and utter a word to express their pain and suffering. Violence is handled to be a crime where the violated persons occupy a lower position, which is different from the abuser’s position that is very high to that of the abused. In addition, I have learned that in most society’s women and children are always subject to violence inside and outside the borders of the family. Here, the notion of a family is differed and becoming to acquire new definitions and new vocabularies; it is a place of various types of violence being it rape, insults, sexual abuse, and physical force. Therefore, a family becomes a symbol of terror and victimization.
