Some husbands beat their wives when they are angry with them.Sometimes when there is a fight between husband and wife the husband slaps the wife.Some husbands also say sorry after beating their wives.And the wives forgive their husbands because she has learnt from childhood that husbands are like God and they can control your life.The husbands also feel that since he is the earner of the house he has full rights on his wife and so if she is wrong then he can beat him.They beleive that if fathers can beat a girl for her well being then he also has the right to beat her.Some girls want to get rid of these types of husbands but they can not divorce as they have children.
What do you feel is it right for a man to beat his wife?If the huband feels that the wife is doing something wrong then can he slap her?Is it right for a woman to endure all torture just for the sake of her child?What impact does this event have on a child?Should these husbands be punished by the law?
I appreciate you for bringing in such a wonderful topic....Many women are suffering but still these issues are kept under wraps either for fear or with the thought of what people might think...
A husband beating his wife can never be justified on any grounds.Even if the wife commits a wrong, it doesn't mean that he has to beat her.Infact if he does that, the wife will indeed develop some sort of seperation atleast in her mind and probably she will not be able to love her husband as she did.It's true that the husband is the head of a family.But it's not to be forgotten that his wife is his main support...A woman is not a slave to be beaten up as and when someone wishes.She is also a human being.It is said that, when a man marries a woman, he should treat her as his own....She becomes a part of him....No man in this world would hurt himself knowingly. Wife is a part of husband itself and should be treated like that....
It doesn't mean that, wife can live however she wants.Indeed, she is bound to obey her husband if she feels that what he says is true and is justifiable.In certain issues, husband may become adamant and in such cases the wife should try her best to adjust with him and to lead a peaceful life...
Family life is itself full of adjustments.Unless and until both the partners adjust themselves, a peaceful life is not possible.Forgiveness is necessary and each of the partner should believe that this is the man/woman God has destined for me and I have to live my life with him/her.If the husband/wife feels what his/her partner does is wrong, he/she has every right to correct her but not by hurting the partner.If the partner is not ready to go by your way, then leave it.It's enough that you do your duty by telling him/her that her action is wrong.Also one can stand on his decission and there is no need to support his/her actions if that act is wrong...
Children indeed with have an impact as if it is a girl child, she will have a fear towards men in her heart.In case of boys, they will always have some inner pain which may blurt out as anger towards their father....Children will have less respect to their father in such families....
Both the partners should try their maximum to go foward with the relation and if it is not possible then it would be better to part and live independently.Whether the husbands should be punished or not, we can't just judge regarding that matter....Just my POV....No offence to anyone😊
