This disturbing documentary looks at the subject of domestic violence as seen through the eyes of children that have witnessed it.
One in five kids in the UK has witnessed domestic abuse, and in this programme which has been filmed over a period of two years, we hear from children who have seen this happening before them. Among those appearing include an eight-year-old boy who witnessed his mother’s head being slammed in a door, and a girl whose stepfather murdered her mother.
Behind Closed Doors: Through the Eyes of the Child is on BBC Two at 21.00.
