how do Chinese have so many

In US, it seems there are too many 家庭暴力 among the Chinese, especially related with GC and new immigrants. The source of this kind of 家庭暴力 should be studied.
One of this source is from ignorance of the law concept and the unstable fundation of the marriage. It always happen to those newly married with a wife as a GC applicant with hu*****and as sponsor.

This kind marriage is in its early stage, and the coupole don't have good understanding to each other, and a very short period relation before the marriage. So the conflict is automatically existing. And the couple dont' have good way to solve the conflict. So they quarreled even the to the edge to divorce.
Of course, at this time, the wife will worry about her future immigration status, then consulted with lawyer. The lawyer always tell her that: there is no way she can keep the GC, if divorced now, except she was a victim of the domestic violance (家庭暴力). Then the wife got the hint what she need to do---get evidence and call 911---when the couple quarreled next time. Later we can see there are so many 家庭暴力 case happened here.

Did the lawyer told her truth? Yes. That is the only way if she divorced then. Is the only thing the lawyer can do for her? Right, otherwise you don't need to go the court, and don't need the lawyer. Is there any other way to solve the marriage and immigration status problem? Yes, there are many ways. (1) try to save your marriage, by more communication. (2) divorce peacefully by discussion, to figure out a way benifits both hu*****and and wife---like divorce after the wife gets the GC. Anyway, mant states ask 1 to 2 years waiting period to divorce. (3) the wife can married to another one who are citizen in 2 years with her temperary GC, even divorced right away. etc...

Some time the wife still not so hard minded, she wonder if she did the right thing. So she will asked in the WENXUECITY forum. Then here people gives her many advice "go to court, to sue the bustard, to get your money and GC". So we can see the result. Do you think it is the right thing even for the wife. What about her future life as a "battered spouse"? Does she deserve that dark status for her future family, like somebody's "political refugee" for his/her country?
