A little showbiz...the case of Rihanna & Chris Brown

Over the last few weeks, the media has been feeding us with the Chris Brown vs Rihanna story which brought back the topic of domestic violence on the forefront.

In this particular case, I was shocked to see that Rihanna's father supports his daughter's decision to return with Chris Brown, the man who has been beating his 20 year old daughter.
If Rihanna was not rich and famous, I would try to explain the father's position by saying he wants his daughter to stick with the rich guy in order to enjoy the "good life". But it is not the case. Shouldn't the father play a more assertive role than just support his daughter's decision?

My question this week is: what should be the role of parents whose children are victims of domestic violence, specially when the children are very young adults?
