This study covers literature and empirical studies where twenty (20) learners from violent homes in Itsoseng and Bodibe areas and eight (8)teachers of Tau-Rapulana, Tswelelopele, Opa-Diatla and Mmuagabo were selected and interviewed. The study was undertaken to investigate the impact of domestic violence on primary and high school learners. The findings of the study revealed that: > Violence cuts across all families of different social backgrounds and economic statuses > Family members are mostly the perpetrators of domestic violence. > Learners from violent families are not readily accepted by both teachers and other learners alike. > Community members and neighbours are not doing enough to address the problem of domestic violence. The study therefore suggests that: > Prevention approaches, treatment and other mechanisms be put in place to deal with the problem of domestic violence. > Schools should introduce a curriculum which teaches non-violent conflict resolution skills. > Teachers should be trained to be able to recognize abused children and to help them.>The government should increase the number of shelters to house learners from violent homes. > Peer-mediated approaches should be utilized to help affected learners socialize effectively with their peers. / Thesis (M.A. (LLC)) North-West University, Mafikeng Campus, 2004

M.Cur. / The effect of domestic violence on abused women subjected to domestic violence, the family as a unit and the broader community is of such a nature that it inhibits emotional growth in the individual and the community. This may lead to a breakdown in the mental health status of those involved. Facilitation of the mental health of abused women subjected to domestic violence is needed. They experience a lot of negative emotional dynamics in the process of shattering of the self and shattering of other relations. They are entangled in the process of abuse. They are also under the wrong impression that they are victims and that they cannot do anything about it. This is confirmed by the researcher's previous research done on the lived experience of abused women subjected to domestic violence (De Beer, 2001 : 25 - 52). The psychiatric nursing specialist is a person placed and equipped in the community health services to provide the facilitation of the mental health of abused women subjected to domestic violence. Up till now psychiatric nursing specialists did not receive the necessary credit and were not utilised to benefit the community health services, hospitals and the individuals involved.
