In 1991 in a Canadian University, a man entered and took a lecturer room hostage. He let all the men go and then killed 14 women, 2 women who survived later suicided. A disgrace on an unimaginable scale!
White Ribbon Day is to remember those women and to take the oath.
I will stand up, speak out and act to prevent men’s violence against women.
Violence against women can take many forms, these are:
- Physical Abuse
- Financial Abuse
- Emotional Abuse
- Verbal Abuse
- Social Abuse
- Stalking
- Spiritual Abuse
Abuse and domestic violence falls under the term of “Controlling” behaviour.
Dads, we are a large group of men and a huge influence within Australia, talk about it, tell our sons and take the oath. Wear the ribbon with pride and lets make a positive difference in the word.
