A ROLE FOR SPORTS CLUBSA video question from Justin Tolley in Nightcliff, NT: At the beginning of last year I was involved in a domestic violence incident with my then partner. It had a catastrophic impact on her, our family, our friends and our football club community which is pretty much one big family. I was jailed for this incident for 3 months and it was a massive turning point in my life. As part of the domestic violence campaign in place at the Nightcliff football club, you are required to speak to everyone collectively and see how it has affected them. I believe that this is a step in the right direction and one that many more sporting clubs can embrace across the nation in changing how we deal with what has gone on in silence for far too long.

When I was subjected to domestic violence, I would always leave my husband but then I would always go back to him. There was no support service available to help me stay away from him for good.
There are a lot of support services available for crisis care and to help a woman leave but there is nothing available to help you stay away from him for good. My question for the panel is: why are there no government- funded support services that are readily available to help the survivors of domestic violence and ensure that we dont go back to our violent partners? Tell us what you think on the Q& A Facebook page. HIGH RISKS OF LEAVINGFiona Mc. Cormack asked: It's really common to hear the question 'why doesn't she just leave?'

WHAT ABOUT MALE VICTIMS? Steve Khouw asked: Latest available research from the ABS 2. Personal Safety Survey and the Australian Institute of Criminology indicate at least one in three victims of family violence and abuse in intimate relationships is male; with the perpetrators being often female. I should know - I am a victim, I was assaulted and suffered from psychological abuse but nobody believed me not the police or social workers, the court system, not even some of my friends.

Our first question tonight comes from Kay Schubach. HOW TO DISPEL THE STIGMA?
KAY SCHUBACH: Thank you. I was in a violent, abusive relationship with a controlling but very charming and popular man and we lived in a prestigious neighbourhood. I'm an educated, independent woman and I had never experienced abuse before. When the violence started, I was too embarrassed and ashamed to seek help from my friends or the police until I was nearly strangled in my own home. Similarly, I was too afraid to face my abuser in court to get an AVO in place as he still had access to all areas of my life.
So my question is: how do we dispel the social cliché that this doesn't happen in our nice homes? And how do we dispel the stigma that keeps women ashamed and silent? TONY JONES: Rosie, I'm going to start with you? ROSIE BATTY: I think when Luke got killed, which is just over 1.
I do live in a nice house, I am an independent single woman, I'm educated, I'm professional, so in one fell swoop I dispelled most of the myths surrounding family violence and I guess that's why I would like to think I've been heard, is because if it can happen to me, it can happen to everybody, and I didn't have a history of violent relationships before that either, Kay. It was something that I didn't know how to handle when it first started to happen and I didn't wear bruises, I didn't get hospitalised and I didn't have broken bones, but he was extremely psychologically abusive and controlling, so I think your point is great, but that's where I hope that over the past 1. It doesn't discriminate, and I'm sure that a lot of us here today are here to support that. Thank you. TONY JONES: Rosie, Kay also asked about the stigma that keeps women silent and ashamed in these circumstances. I actually have the impression that you were not silent and ashamed actually in your case? ROSE BATTY: No. Perhaps what I would - the shame squarely is with the perpetrator of violence.
I think I've always been outspoken and one of the things I will say, though, is you can't always trust the response from the people that you need to turn to, to help you in a way that is non- judgmental and that is, again, something I would very much like to change in the short term because, although there are many very, very good policemen, it doesn't mean that every single policeman treats you with the respect that you should be treated and, again, when you go to court, there are many, many good judges and good magistrates, but there is an awful lot that, again, show the same judgment and criticism. So your journey is as tough going through that process as it is for the abuse that you've been subjected to, and that has to change. TONY JONES: Let me just go back to our questioner, Kay. I mean, listening to this, does that resonate with you? I mean, you said your abuser was charming and a popular man.
