Abstract
The purpose of my project is to explore the effects that domestic violence has on mothers in Japan caused by their husbands/partners. It mainly focuses on how the domestic violence affects the mother's mental state, and ties in the relationship with their children, and the effects on the whole family. Japanese culture, such as, uchi and soto will be introduced as well as possible solutions to decrease domestic violence in Japan. It will also briefly discuss the need for Japanese women to have a secure, good paying job in a male-dominate society to provide for herself and her children after she leaves her abusive partner.
