[quote=Anonymous]So something to consider is the tremendous guilt and anxiety it puts on a child if the child feels like he/she has failed the the other sibling or mom. Example: my dad yelled a lot and had a terrible temper, as did my mom, never hitting I don’t believe. My brother bore the brunt of it because I pretty much disengaged and avoided them like the plague. However I was in elementary school when my dad got so angry that my younger brother wouldn’t eat something at dinner that he threw potatoes at the wall nest to my brother. I was so upset that I ran to another room and picked up the phone and literally almost called 911. I couldn’t do it, however, and felt sooooooo guilty about that for year and years. It was horrible. What stopped me was the knowledge that my parents would have yelled and shamed ME for calling 911 on them. [/quote]
