INVINCIBLE

Brian F. Martin

The 10 Lies You Learn Growing Up With Domestic Violence, and the Truths to Set You Free

In•vin•ci•ble: incapable of being overcome:
A profound and compassionate insight into the lives of children of domestic violence.
UNICEF calls experiencing domestic violence as a child “one of the most damaging unaddressed human rights violations in the world today.” This little-known and infrequently talked about issue affects hundreds of millions worldwide. Today, more than half of all children who experience domestic violence are being raised by a parent who was a child of domestic violence. Without awareness and change, the cycle will likely continue from one generation to the next.

The mission of Invincible is to inform and inspire those people who have lived with domestic violence, as well as those who love them, work with them, teach them, and mentor them.

Through powerful first person stories, insightful commentary based on the most recent research from the social science and psychology communities, and the author’s own experiences, Invincible provides a deeper understanding of the issues and people involved in domestic violence – and offers proven ways to deal with the many challenges that witnesses to domestic violence face every day.

Brian F. Martin is the founder of Children of Domestic Violence, an international organization dedicated to helping those who have experienced childhood domestic violence to reach their full potential and break the cycle of abuse. Author websites: cdv.org; twitter.com/BrianFMartin.
He was born outside of Newark, New Jersey, and lives there today with his two most favorite people in all the world: his daughter, Ella, and son, Frank.
