Dara (not her real name) put the assaults down to differing views on child raising. After giving birth over a year ago, she turned to counselling – common among new mums nowadays. So, she filed a complaint with the Bangkok Noi precinct and had police officers accompany her home, Dara said. Upon arriving, she said, her husband refused to let her in and challenged her to take him to court. However, her mother-in-law stepped in and promised to help negotiate matters, so Dara agreed to drop the complaint.
