Domestic terrorism or characterological abuse is a form of intimate partner violence that originates from power, control, and gender differences. It is unidirectional, therefore it is going to be from one partner to the other. The abusive partner will not likely take any responsibility for their actions and they believe that the abusive behaviors are justified.
