The thing that frustrates me the most is this:


The fact that they have a kid together makes this one big cluster. Even more than that, the thing that really scares me is that having Ray Rice for a Dad increases the risk that his daughter could easily end up attracted to abusive a-holes like, well Ray Rice, when she grows up.

How the abusive behavior of fathers effect their daughters?

The father-daughter relationship influences how grown-up daughters feel about themselves as women.

It can influence their choice of an intimate partner.

The daughters of an abusive father may, as an adult, be more susceptible to domestic violence, eating disorders, alcoholism or drug abuse and sexual promiscuity.

Granted its not guaranteed that Ray Rice's daughter will seek out abusive a-holes but just like many people with a family history of alcoholism need to be careful around booze (ie the alcoholism gene), people who are around abusive or traumatic experiences like domestic violence need to be careful, with, well basically everything when they grow up (dating, drugs, alcohol, eating habits).
