A youngster is more susceptible to mental health issues as a result of these events, such as posttraumatic stress disorder, insecurity, and delayed mental development. Children from violent homes are more likely to experience behavioral issues and have difficulty developing self-regulation because of the tense and developmental barriers that these families produce (Lourenço et al., 2013). According to Manly et al. (2013), children who witness intimate partner violence are more likely to become aware of potentially dangerous stimuli, which can result in both internalizing and externalizing issues such melancholy, social anxiety, and social disengagement. As per Paul, 2019; Paul & Eckenrode, 2015; Mueller and Tronick, 2019), intimate partner violence can have a lasting impact on a child's neuro-emotional and neurological development, causing disruptions to their emotional and cognitive growth, as well as the development of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis and brain structures linked to witnessing experiences.
