5 MAIN REASONS:

Gender
inequality
Gender inequality is the root cause of male/husband violence
against women/wives in the family. In the family, women have a
position and power that is not equal to that of men, do not have
the right to participate in family decisions, making them
vulnerable to violence caused by men.
Economic difficulties
Economic difficulties are also one of the possible causes of domestic
violence because economic difficulties often create pressures, tensions,
and deadlocks for family members and thus lead to to conflicts and
disputes, if not handled appropriately, can cause domestic violence.
However, not every economic hardship is necessarily related to domestic
violence. In fact, many families have low living standards and incomes, but
the families are still in harmony, and conversely, there are well-off families
where violence still occurs.

The Limitation of Legal propaganda and education on domestic violence
prevention and control
Legal propaganda and education on domestic violence prevention and control is still limited.
The low level of awareness and understanding of the law among a part of the population is also
the reason why domestic violence continues to occur. Many people, due to a lack of
understanding of the law, think that parents have the right to beat and curse their children, and
husbands have the right to beat their wives…Many women and the elderly are not fully aware
of their rights, so they dare not fight. struggle to endure violence. However, just like economic
causes, domestic violence also occurs in families where members are highly educated and
knowledgeable about the law.

Social evils
The causes of social evils such as alcohol, gambling, addiction, prostitution...
and other causes such as adultery, jealousy... are also direct causes of domestic
violence.

The Inadequacy of the community's attention to domestic violence prevention
and control
The community's attention to domestic violence prevention and control is still
inadequate. Communities and families still consider domestic violence a
private matter in each family and outsiders should not interfere. Therefore, the
community's response to domestic violence acts is still indifferent and not
strong. The prevention, detection, prevention and handling of domestic
violence acts are not timely and serious, so violence continues to occur
without being prevented.
