Financial Abuse In Couples

Having your caring, concerned, and trusted partner handle the finances in your relationship...seems like a dream come true, right? 

Not so fast!

What happens when concern turns into coercion? When does trust become a threat? 

Financial abuse isn't widely discussed, so you may be surprised to learn how prevalent it is. Like domestic abuse, financial abuse can be subtle, suggestive at the outset, and yet just as severe.
