Angelina Jolie Has Advice For Domestic Abuse Victims Stuck With Abusers!

If you are a person who is a victim of domestic abuse, well, actress Angelina Jolie has some advice on how to deal with your abuser if you stuck with them for the holidays. Read on to find out…

CelebnMusic247.com reports that Angelina Jolie is once again getting involved in bringing awareness to the problem of domestic violence amid the pandemic.

Despite her issues with her ex Brad Pitt and all the legal drama, she wants to share some advice regarding domestic abuse.

This time, Angelina Jolie weighs in on the fact that abuse happens more than usual during the holidays so she has some invaluable advice for women and children stuck with their abusers during the season.

In an interview for Harper’s Bazaar, the actress and activist had some great suggestions for those without a voice or any power, feeling like there is no escape from their abusers.

This has especially been the case amid the pandemic since everyone has been stuck in the house together, and now that the holidays are right around the corner, it’s believed that cases of domestic violence happen even more!

For some victims this is an utter nightmare, but fortunately, Angelina Jolie has some suggestions.

Jolie had this to say about those vulnerable during the holidays:

Talk to someone. Try to find allies. Be connected for emergencies. For example, you can agree [sic] a code word with a friend or a family member, which tells them if you’re facing an emergency. Often it will be strangers who help. Or other victims, support groups… faith groups. Above all, just be careful. Only you truly know the danger you are in, and until you find your support outside, you may feel quite alone.

She goes on to advise those who are safe themselves but might have a relative or a friend suffering from abuse, as well:

If it’s even crossed your mind that somebody you know might be vulnerable in this way, try to stay close and present in their lives. Make it clear that you are there for them.

In closing, Angelina had this to say:

Another thing we can all do is educate ourselves. Learn about domestic violence. Learn how trauma affects our health and can lead to biological changes, particularly in children. Take these issues seriously. Listen to them. Don’t judge them. Try to understand the huge emotional, financial and legal pressures they are likely facing.
