A Correct: In the sociological model of family violence, family violence is viewed as a pattern of behavior that is passed from generation to generation. Although the form of abuse may change, the pattern continues. In one generation the abuse may be physical, but may change to sexual abuse in the next generation. Caregivers will construct similar abusive relationships with their own children based on their experiences of having violent caregivers.
