Oprah believes this story can be a teaching moment for every teen and parent. "Love doesn't hurt," she says. "And if a man hits you once, he will hit you again."
This is what Oprah commented after the Rihanna -Chris Brown incident and dedicated a whole week of her show to discussing domestic violence issue.
It's the story that has brought dating violence into the national spotlight. On February 8, 2009, police responded to a 911 call alleging domestic violence between singers Chris Brown and Rihanna.
Later that day, both pulled out of planned appearances at the Grammy Awards, and Chris turned himself into police. He was arrested on the suspicion of making criminal threats and was released on bail.
Weeks later, rumors of their reconciliation were reported.
On March 5, 2009, Chris appeared in court, charged with two counts of felony assault. His arraignment has been postponed until April 2009 while he remains free on bail.
Statistics say about one in three high school students have been—or will be—involved in an abusive relationship. "The message this story sends to teen girls and boys everywhere is disturbing, and it is also dangerous," Oprah says. "We need to try to evolve from this moment … use this as a moment to allow our society to begin to grow."
But do you believe that if a man hit you again, he will definitely do it again? I definitely do because i think a man, however angry, sad, depressed he is, he should and never hit the woman that he love. No matter what, it is really not right even if some people would say that "Oh, she deserves it". Well, hear me out, nobody deserves to get punch and hit like that, NOBODY!
