  ABSTRACT: As per its definition, Battered Woman Syndrome (BWS) is an unfortunate clinical condition related to woman’s prolonged and repeated exposure to the domestic violence. Most of the battered women do not ask for help (neither legal protection or therapy due to sustained psychological trauma) because of the children’s safety, and/or unsupportive legal and community services. Sadly, but vast majority of severe domestic violence became highlighted in the courtroom; however, not because of the batterer’s abuse and battery (which often include children) but because that battered woman is accused of killing her partner or caused grievous body injuries to him.
