Putting child sexual abuse prevention on the political agenda July 26, 2010: Residents in Wales are being given the chance to get the prevention of child sexual abuse on the political agenda, thanks to a new campaign by Stop it Now! Wales.

Domestic abuse is the actual or threatened physical, emotional, psychological, sexual or financial abuse of a woman by a partner, family member or someone with whom there is, or has been, a close relationship. This abuse also relates to the perpetrator allowing or causing a child to witness, or be at risk of witnessing, domestic abuse.

It starts with screams and must never end in silence. 12% to 15% of European women over 16 have suffered domestic abuse in a relationship – too many have died. Many more continue to suffer physical and sexual violence from former partners, even after the break-up. It's time to find a way out!

Beth Yw Camdriniaeth yn y Cartref?

Mae Cymorth i Fenywod Cymru’n diffinio Cam-drin yn y Cartref fel bygwth neu wir cam-drin rhywun yn gorfforol, yn emosiynol, yn seicolegol, yn rhywiol neu’n ariannol gan bartner, aelod o’r teulu neu berson mewn perthynas agos â nhw, neu a oedd mewn perthynas agos â nhw.

Yn y bôn mae cam-drin yn y cartref yn cynnwys un person yn camddefnyddio pŵer ac yn defnyddio rheolaeth dros berson arall lle mae, neu y cafwyd perthynas agos.

Mae cam-drin yn y cartref yn digwydd beth bynnag fo’r rhyw, hil, dosbarth, oed, crefydd, rhywioldeb, gallu meddyliol, gallu corfforol, incwm, ffordd o fyw neu ardal breswyl ddaearyddol.

Dengys ystadegau bod 97% o ddigwyddiadau cam-drin yn y cartref yr adroddir amdanynt yn cael eu cyflawni gan ddynion yn erbyn menywod. Fodd bynnag, mae Cymorth i Fenywod Cymru yn cydnabod y gall cam-drin yn y cartref ddigwydd o fewn perthynas o’r un rhyw ac mewn ychydig iawn o achosion, menywod sy’n cyflawni’r gamdriniaeth.

Ceir llawer o ffurfiau gwahanol o gam-drin yn y cartref ond yn bennaf ceir 4 categori cyffredinol. Dyma nhw:

  • Cam-drin Corfforol
  • Cam-drin Emosiynol / Seicolegol
  • Cam-drin Rhywiol
  • Cam-drin Ariannol
  •
