In this thought-provoking episode, we embark on a deep dive into the often overlooked dynamics of female perpetrators and enmeshment, particularly focusing on the complex relationships between mothers and their sons and the impact on patterns of domestic abuse.

Our 2022 surveyed over 800 Sikh Panjabi women and girls living in the UK where 1/3 of women who had experienced domestic abuse identified their mothers-in-law as the principal perpetrator.

With a compassionate and critical lens, we confront the societal myths and misconceptions surrounding female perpetrators of abuse and the intricate web of enmeshment that can perpetuate generational cycles of violence within families. Through candid conversations and nuanced analysis, we seek to broaden the discourse on domestic abuse to encompass the diversity of experiences and narratives that shape these often taboo relationships.
