BATTERED WOMEN SYNDROME Dr. Paul Otubusin RECOMMENDATIONS When people hear about a woman who is abused, the first suggestion they have is that she should just leave him. This is very easy to say. But if you are this woman, it is not all that easy. Hoever, the following are our recommendations. First, the abused woman should accept the fact that she is in a destructive relationship. Second, she must reach out to someone - a close friend, neighbor, family member, clergy or someplace that specializes in helping
women get out of abusive situations. Third, she must face the fact that
what is happening to her is not her fault. Fourth, she must know that
no matter what she does it will not end the abuse so long as she stays
there. Any woman involved with a wife “beater” needs to get away from
him as quickly as possible and begin to rebuild her life. Sometimes, the
woman must totally dis-appear for her own safety. ‘Living trust’ can be passed on to your beneficiaries without probate A trust is generally an agreement where one person holds and manages property for another. If you create it while you are alive, it is called a “living trust” and is a vehicle for passing along property (after you are gone) to your beneficiaries without the lengthy process of probate. To create a living trust, ask your lawyer to prepare a trust agreement
that names the trustees -one or more responsible individuals or a bank
or trust company - as well as your beneficiaries. The agreement, which
defmes the trustee’s rights and duties, usually states that if you are
disabled, a trustee may use the income and principal from the trust to
pay your bills. |
