Even if the behaviors are identified, there are various reasons a person may have limited options to break the cycle of abuse. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f40b4acb2b89176e9fbe6f/df10097e-5bcb-4617-9f77-37c293abe288/Screen+Shot+2022-01-30+at+1.18.32+PM.png Background - Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs states that physiological and safety needs are basic needs for human survival. Physiological needs, such as food and warmth, and safety needs, such as physical protection and financial security, must be fulfilled in order for a person to eventually grow and reach their full potential. Under conditions where basic needs cannot be met, a person may have limited options for escaping an abusive environment. If a person has the abilities and resources to satisfy these basic needs independently, their threat to survival decreases and opportunity to live a happy and fulfilled life increases. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Background https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Background
