“Violence breeds violence”: A qualitative study exploring adolescents’ views on violence towards their parents in Jordan

This is the first study in Jordan that highlights the phenomenon of APV in Jordan, including different types of violence, the causes from adolescents' views, the consequences of violence, how adolescents manage it, and specific characteristics of APV. APV breeds further violence towards others. Additional research is needed to explore APV parents' perceptions. Moreover, exploring the best possible ways to minimize violent incidences within the community is necessary.
