emotional abuse to me, is the worst, because emotions take a long time to heal. BUT, having said that, sexual and verbal abuse are also emotionaly abusive. i'd rather have a few cuts and bruises on my body, they heal, but emotions are who you are, and you dont want to scar that.\n\nand honestly, i don't think someone can really ever truelly get passed that resentment, it'll always be in the back of your mind. if he raises his hand just for the sake of raising it in the middle of a fight, you'll flinch, and that  shows that you haven't gotten passed it. you obviously still think about it. its not a healthy relationship. it should be good from the beginning. your relationship is forever poisoned

i've gone through a lot of emotional issues from the time i was little. My father as an abusive ex-drunk and my mom has always been somewhat verbally abusive. How do i feel about it?I hate the fact that i was never really allowed to have a care free childhood and hate having memories of my dad beating me up or having to leave my house at night because my mom and dad had fought.

NONE, NONE, NONE, NONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nThe disadvantages are your friends and family never seeing you again. The pain they will have to live with if you do it and the guilt they will feel. There is nothing in this world that is that bad!!! Just remember that God would never put you through something you could not handle. (This to shall pass!)

I think that it is important to note that there are many types of abuse. Not only physical abuse, which most people would typify with this type of situation, but most commonly you will find emotional abuse (cursing, and derogatory name calling), and more often than not neglect. Usually in the extreme form where the parent often leaves the child alone, and the child goes hungry, unkempt and inadequately sheltered. I spent several years working in a group home, and saw lots of cases of this.  The percentage of abuse was not greater in an addiction riddled household, but it did seem more severe. I think alot of it has to do with the addictive person looking out for themselves and where their next "fix" was going to be coming from and w/their own lives that they couldn't be bothered with their children, and looked upon them as a burden and not something to be cherished.

Worst beating of my life came when I was about 14 years old.  I offered my little brother a stick of gum and he took the whole pack.  He was a pill so I got mad.  I called him a bastard.  I've called him worse names before, but that apparently was the worst for my mom.  She was walking down the hallway and flung the clothes in her arm to the floor and JUMPED on me.  She was screaming, and slapping at me!  Eventually she apologized, but it does make ya wonder why THAT word made her the angriest.

hmm both. With the disgusts, you can share evil stories. With the intrests, you'll share more peaceful and kind conversations. Make your pick!

I disagree with the person who says domestic violence is the "obvious" answer. I think it's the ultimate answer. People who feel trapped in this kind of relationship are being controlled and there is little joy in their marriage. I deal with this issue in my work, and I'd say along with drug/alcohol addictions this is at the top of the list. Domestic violence would include physical, sexual and verbal/emotional abuse.\n\nOther than these, I'd include a lack of intimacy (not sex as much as intimacy), having incompatible values (moral, spiritual, financial, child rearing, etc.), or a lack of commitment (which would include things like infidelity or excessive flirtations).

I went to Catholic school in the 50's and 60's.  Of course I was physically abused.  I had IHM nuns and they specialized in it!  Twisting the ears, hitting the knuckles with a ruler, whacking your butt with a dust brush.  And if the physical punishment didn't break your will, you'd be locked in the broom closet.\n\nSome fun, huh???

This, of course, is one of those nasty things you think about but never do. It really depends on the person. Generally, whatever would humiliate them the most or cause their reputation to change for the worse.

Physical harassment and\nVerbal harassment.\n\nThats all that I can think of.

Mental abuse is worse than physical abuse. You think that you have gathered the strength to stand up to it, when you find out the abuser has been telling your friends things that aren't true, for the purpose of turning them against you. You then have to try and explain the situation, which doesn't always result in your friend still being your friend, which is a painful thing to deal with. those scars are harder to heal.\nWith physical abuse, there are visual signs, which aren't open to interpretation.
