Part Four, Raising Perpetrators
Why do people become perpetrators? Is early intervention the key? We get a unique insight into a project working with young boys. ‘They describe them as monsters that have done horrible things and no one’s looked at why.’ Undiscussable takes you inside UN HQ and the Home Office. Is domestic abuse cyclical? We take you to see a clinical psychologist to explain why.
