Yes, it is abuse...if an adult hurts someone else in the family physically, I think it's domestic abuse. I'd have to ask my cousin, though, to see if I'm right (she diagnoses my family often enough).
I think that it would. Children will see people they love getting abused and they would think,"Ok, when I grown up and marry that is what is going to happen to me." They won't know any better. Or even with friends. When the children are around other people they might not want to get too close because they would be afraid of what would happen to them.
I think child abuse also refers to psychologic abuse (sorry, iam a horrible speller), because it's like hurting you, emotionally, to see a loved one getting hurt. If it's not child abuse then i am sure it's psychological abuse (spelling again?).
You've gotta tell someone! Don't just let it dwell inside ya. That, will just make it worse. go to a professional or a school counsler. I'm rootin' for ya!
Personally I think gemini is just l kin out for Earth. and krazy who do you think you are calling her stupid? she's a person 2 ya no & deserves respect!!!
If your mom laughs at you for trying to get help, then (no offense but...) she's the one who needs the help.You need to get away(go to a friends house or something) until you can get some real help!!!Just get OUT!!!!
i want to get help, i really do but my mom seems to have forgotten what has happened and when i ask her if i can get therapy she laughs at me. and i dont talk to my dad anymore.
Okay please tell someone. I read one of your posts about what your dad did to your mom and that is so not normal. The sooner you tell someone, the better. Oh, God bless you.
I think that it depends.If it was a child,then yes its child abuse. If it was an adult it would be physical abuse...But it is still abuse.Hopefully you told someone about this and you talk to people(counslers..) about what you arew thinking.And tell them why and how this inncident changed you forever.
