The booklet also addresses various myths about domestics violence. Finally, the booklet emphasizes that early childhood workers need to support victims of domestic violence by: (1) believing their reports of abuse; (2) discussing safety strategies; (3) notifying the police; (4) informing victims about refuges and crisis services; (5) taking victims' fear seriously; and (6) helping the children of victims. Early childhood workers can help prevent domestic violence by encouraging children to be cooperative, exerting authority over children in a respectful manner, fostering equality and respect for others, and preventing children from using violence against each other.
