Events in my life over the past 13 years, especially in the last year, have shown me that it is A-OK to abuse people as long as it doesn’t get physical – emotional abuse, psychological abuse, sure its all good because it doesn’t leave a mark…at least not one you can readily see.
A good overall definition of psychological abuse is hard to come by. Here are some definitions/descriptions of that are useful:

Unfortunately I have come to realize that it apparently is alright to psychologically abuse people. There is nothing anyone will or can do about it until the abuse becomes physical or someone dies. The cops won’t do anything, elder abuse won’t do anything, Child Protective Services won’t do anything – even though psychological abuse is very damaging to a developing child (anyone really) and the damage and/or abuse is passed from one generation to the next and also fosters physical abuse. So abuse away people – have at it and have fun. Create your monsters but don’t you dare ask why people don’t like you; don’t you dare ask what’s wrong with people today when you know full what is perpetuating horrible behavior; and don’t you dare play it coy and complain about societies ills when you are a part of the nasty game.
