Oh god, you clearly don’t have much knowledge of abusive partners, because you couldn’t be more wrong.

Maybe we could discuss the ideas instead to discuss my knowledge and just say I am wrong. We both could learn something.

Play the neiborghs a role denouncing abusive situations? I think that yes, in my experience they sometimes do it. Therefore more people at home could be traslated easily to more videos, more audios, and more denounces. Am I wrong?

Do the victims choose to ignore that they are being abused? IMHO Yes, they do, for years until the situation can't be hiddden anymore or something happens and the victim suddenly awake.

If the victim does not choose to change and break with their former life, there is not a lot of things that other people can do. In my experience victims lie, systematically, constantly, about the real situation and they actively try to protect their abuser.

Your experience can be different, of course.
