Staying When Abused: Chris Brown & Rihanna Story

OK, I know that everyone will have something to say about Rihanna and Chris Brown getting back together. I also figure based on comments around me that many people feel that she should never have gotten back with him. But everyone has to live their own lives and make their own mistakes. The funniest or maybe it's the saddest part is that the mob saying she's a fool are people I know have remained with abusive spouses. Apart from the fact that they are young and in love, if rumors on the Internet are true, she is also pregnant with his child. Being pregnant and alone is a scary prospect, and emotions are all over the place. I agree that children shouldn't be brought up in abusive homes. No one knows for sure if theirs is an abusive relationship, or if this was a first time occurrence. So the bigger question we need to ask is, was the beating the first or is it just the worst in a long line of incidents. One off physical, emotional or verbal abuse is bad, but can be overlooke...
