Number of UK women convicted of domestic abuse doubles

[MMI]

This actually happened to me. I happened to be in my kitchen, and saw a young boy riding his bicycle on the street in front of my house. The bike tipped and he fell onto the grass alongside the road. I immediately headed out the back door to make sure he was all right, but sadly my first thought was, "Should I take the chance of trying to help this kid?"

Fortunately, his father was there before I was, but it bothers me that I had to be concerned about the possible repercussions of helping a fallen child.

I also saw a young lad tumble from his bike. I did not help him. I did ask if he was hurt, and he wasn't.

My wife said under the circumstances I did the right thing by doing nothing.

It's insane that it has come to this! What can be done?
