Myself and my brother's witnessed the same in Latin America. So many good women abused by their men. I remember a first discussion that I gave where she'd just recently been released from the hospital, black eye's and bruises everywhere, I was appalled at how common this was. I lost count of the women who would cry to us missionaries about there husbands being unfaithful.
I don't think it's as common here but maybe I'm just sheltered from it, not being out in the mission field.
Ask God to teach you and then have patience as answers come line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little there a little.
