[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Silent treatment is abuse. Imagine a child coming home to a house where her MOTHER is not talking to her and hence feeling unsafe in her own house that is supposed to be her safest place on earth. The silent treatment is a particularly insidious form of abuse because it might force the victim to reconcile with the perpetrator in an effort to end the behavior, even if the victim doesn’t know why they’re apologizing. “It’s especially controlling because it deprives both sides from weighing in,” Williams said. “One person does it to the other person, and that person can’t do anything about it.”[/quote] [b] Shunning is the most psychologically damaging tactic you can use. Animals who experience it die from depression.[/b][/quote] Don't tell the OP this, she'll only continue treating her daughter in this sadistic way. I haven't read as self centered a post on here as this one in a very long time. [/quote]
