The relationship between domestic violence towards children and psychological loneliness

Domestic violence towards children is a serious societal problem because of its negative impact on the individual and society. Domestic violence directed at children has negative reactions to the environment and individuals surrounding them, such as violence against others, theft, crime, lawlessness, drug and alcohol abuse. In view of the seriousness of the phenomenon of domestic violence, which has negative effects on the adolescent and his/her psychological health, and the devastating effects it has on society, the researcher felt the need to study the phenomenon of family violence directed at children and its impact on their sense of psychological loneliness. The researcher has used the descriptive approach to achieve the objectives of the study. This approach is based on reference to studies, articles and books related to the current subject to achieve the objectives of the study. The study concluded that there is an inverse correlation between the sense of security and the forms of domestic violence. Through the results of the current study, the researcher recommends in conducting further studies on domestic violence against other age groups and inviting governmental and non-governmental institutions to promote the social culture that is a source of domestic violence.
