A
This is typical of the second phase of the cycle of domestic violence following a serious battering incident. The client may also lie about the cause of the incident. During this second phase of the cycle the victim usually asks for the police not to be involved for fear of future battering in retaliation. The client is usually nurturing and compliant in the first phase of the cycle when tension is building. During the honeymoon phase (or third phase), the client believes in the permanency of the relationship.
