Kitchen Cupboards Blamed for Domestic Violence

In another nod to the “invisible” cause of domestic abuse and violence against women, this National Center for Domestic Violence commercial highlights the fact that, in the U.K., 330,000 injuries per year are blamed on kitchen cupboard doors.

While it’s certain these domestic violence campiagns bring to light this terrible issue, it’s not so clear they do anything to stop the violence. In fact, a current or potential abuser viewing this commercial now has yet another excuse to use when explaining away the situation.
