Not sure what fantasy reality you're living in, but women with abusive husbands go to battered women's shelters, which aren't really that great at all. They're basically like hostel, sometimes they have some support but not really. Their lives are fucked, especially if they have kids. Social support is nowhere near enough what it needs to be - not just for women of abusive partners, but for pretty much every struggling group. There is never enough social support for people in need.

As for you growing up with abusive parents, I'm sorry that happened anon. Truly. But when people tell you you're an adult and it's your own life now, that's generally not meant to be dismissive of your trauma. It's meant to be an empowering statement. Yes, you're an adult, you have autonomy now, and you have the power to drive your own destiny. You can work on your traumas with professionals and on your own, leave unhealthy dynamics, and actively seek healthier dynamics. You generally aren't forced to tolerate abuse like you were as a child. Take your destiny into your own hands.

>Yes, you're an adult, you have autonomy now, and you have the power to drive your own destiny
So women are never adults?
>>

Society generally demands less responsibility for them than it does men, so yes in a way, but you already knew that and can't do anything about it, so you should focus on your own autonomy and what you can do to make your situation better.

Would you tell that to adult women in abusive relationships if they WEREN'T getting $22,000,000,000 of the national budget to help them?
Tell them to 'grow up'?
>>
>>82469039
I would tell any woman struggling with what you're struggling with the same thing I'm telling you right now.
>>
>>82469039
The toil of raising children while trying to escape abuse can't be understated. You are being petulant
>>
>>82469063
Not all married women have children, foid.

>>82469061
You didn't answer my question.
If adult women with abusive husbands didn't get billions of dollars in state funding, would you tell them to just "grow up" and be autonomous?
Yes or no?
>>
>>82469120
Your question was answered. The answer is yes. I'm not sure why you are confused, I feel I'm being straightforward.

>I would tell any woman struggling with what you're struggling with
I'm not a woman with an abusive husband. Maybe English is not your native language because what you said is not what you think you said, then.
>>
>>82469964
If you were being straight forward, then you would have said it from the beginning. But you began by defending the current system.
