Domestic violence affects everyone in the home, including your children, no matter how hard you try to hide it, or how well you think you are hiding it. Talk to your children, and make sure they understand the situation. If you feel unable to cope with expressing the situation to your children, there are child counselors available to help your children cope with the changes. A couple good phone numbers to have for support for children are:
ChildLine Telephone 0800 1111
National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) Helpline: 0808 800 5000 (Textphone: 0800 056 0566)
