I'm sorry. I have limited time.
I really appreciate that response, because I absolutely respect how dangerous coercive control is, and that there needs to be a balanced approach. It's hard to teach prosocial behaviours in an anti-social environment. That's what my concern is.
I was also taken by the fact that you talked about how mental health supports for individuals stop at 18. This is true. Prior to 18, if you're having difficulty, a lot of supports often can be provided, for example through schools. They'll provide kids with supports, but then you turn 18 and all the supports stop. There doesn't seem to be a focus on funding proper mental health care for people dealing with complex mental health and trauma, including complex mental health and trauma that come out of witnessing family violence.
Can you speak to the importance of targeted funding and programs for people recovering from trauma related to family violence?
