Re: Doubt It

And I would disagree that abuse is embellished. We have a spike in child fatalaties in Colorado. In 70% of the cases there was a history of abuse. It appears that the abuse history was not fully researched or evaluated or it was minimized. We now have a recommendation in a report to provide further training on familial and partner abuse.
The term "high conflict" in my opinion is an example of skirting and burying the abuse issue. An example that comes to mind is the Tacoma law officer(chief of police?) that shot his wife in front of his children before shooting himself. There was evidence there had been abuse but it was ignored or minimized. Perhaps characterized as "high conflict"?
