Notes:	Examines solutions to domestic violence and the problems with some prevention strategies that are based on theories of intergenerational violence. Challenges theories of intergenerational violence or “the cycle of abuse”, arguing that research cannot conclude that boys witnessing domestic violence can be seen as a singular causal indicator that they will become violent. This contention is based on research showing the majority of boys who grow up in violent homes do not grow up to become abusive.
