Horrendous story Mantis and brave of you to share it with us, as others have said I hope you have had some professional help later in life and are coping ok. My wifes family had a similar issue with her father who was of Italian/Croatian heritage but nothing like the extreme violence you have been through. Unfortunately I dont see there being an easy fix other than providing more safe places where mothers, children can flee to avoid the violence and with the lack of housing etc I cant see Governments being able to solve the problem or even being able to put a dent in it. Education at the junior level may reduce the amount of incidents later but its going to take a while to see much change sadly...take care of yourself and hopefully a premiership isnt too far away to bring you some small joy.
