What I assume you fail to realise is that to treat DV, we first have to recognise the real causes. For example;
Take away those who's religion promotes disrespecting women. Then take away a large portion of indigenous DV as this is treatable by removing the likes of alcohol, then we must also identify the cases of DV from relationships built around elicit drug use and finally, the cases caused by man hating, vindictive women, hell bent on seeking revenge, usually through the kids.
Now once we identity these, then put them aside, i think you will find the problem is nowhere near as bad as you make out, however, by not identifying the causes, you are merely treating the symptom and ignoring the cause.
