[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently DC went to the counselor and told that spouse is screaming at them during arguments. Now I am worried this will start a report on our family. For what is worth we are both immigrant and in our country yelling at a child would not be considered crazy but I know for anglo people this is a big deal. I am terrified[/quote] It's not abuse that will get the kid taken away but it could be verbal and emotional abuse, which is just as scarring. It's one thing to yell once in awhile and apologize after for how you handled it (where warranted). It's another to constantly scream at your child. My father was like this. And though he did hit us sometimes and withheld affection as punishment, it was incredibly damaging. And it modeled his behavior, which took a long time to get past. I have not spoken to him in over 20 years as a result of his actions.[/quote]
