 The text discusses various scientific studies and findings related to domestic violence, telomeres, and genetics. It highlights how exposure to domestic violence can affect children's DNA, leading to shorter telomeres, which are linked to higher risks of heart disease, obesity, and mental illness. Additionally, the study found that genetic damage caused by domestic violence can be passed down to future generations. The article also mentions a singer who was affected by domestic violence in her childhood and is now advocating for awareness about the issue.
