(1) Thread: Domestic abuse in celebrity couples

I saw #IStandWithMelissa trending so clicked on the tag to see what it's about.

I don't watch TV shows or movies much these days so I didn't know who Melissa Benoist (31) or Blake Jenner (28) are.

Here's why I write about it.
(2) I write about celebrities' private matters that they make public for several reasons. Mostly because we seldom get to see inside an abusive relationship, unless we are in it. So, there are lessons for everyone; You can help protect your adult child, friend etc.
(3) I'm a survivor of domestic abuse (several times) and I happen to have worked in the field of public policy analysis that includes this topic.

I can share some of what I know, in the hope that it raises awareness and even spares a few people some pain.
