[quote=Anonymous]The key thing here is lack of empathy. All the posters justifying this behavior—when you say something and your child is frightened or brought to tears, do you walk away feeling justified? Or do you apologize and try to fix the communication? Because it’s not about the windows or the dinner. It’s about the pattern here: Something happens that he doesn’t like He tries to shame and blame his family The kids get really upset He leaves OP to comfort them and sees no problem with consistently being the cause of their bad feelings I have gotten angry and said stuff that upset my spouse and kids too, but I stay and try to apologize and clarify and make it right with them. Because hurting them was an accident. He doesn’t do any of that because he isn’t sorry. HURTING THEM WAS THE POINT. And that is what makes it abuse.[/quote]
