On Domestic Violence

• When your husband takes your medical records without your consent or knowledge and uses these against you
• When your husband tells household help to take instructions only from him as a condition of employment
• When your husband does not allow you to hire help for taking care of household chores or child care even if you are willing to pay for such help
• When your husband does not allow you to drive the car even though you know how to and are a competent driver
• When your husband denies you entry into your matrimonial home even though you are legally married to him
• When your husband takes away the home computer or landline so that your access to the internet, email and phone connections is that much more difficult
