I really should havestated somethwhen I retorted at you. (sorry...)
 
Marraiges and dysfunctional families are 2 of the many places that
verbal abuse can be found.
 
An example of scwould be from long-term intimidation.
An example of that would be a parent saying something like "you'll never
amount to anything worthwhile."
Low self-esteem can magnify the effec, even if only because thon lets it
.
I hope that you understand the illustration that I've given above.
