Mei,

So what does a person do in your country if they are being physically abused by their spouse? Or what if the spouse is abusing the children in the marriage (physically or even sexually)?

I am not a fan of divorce. Marriage is (to some extent) an agreement that divorce isn't an option for either party, but that agreement is based on trust. If that trust is broken in a grievous enough fashion, one or both parties may need to escape a destructive environment.
