Title: Verbal Abuse Or Something Else.
Post by: Willingtolearn on July 10, 2014, 03:54:20 PM
In the true sense of the word, verbal abuse would mean words that are spoken.an

Can abuse sent in a text message be classed as verbal abuse?  Words are not spoken but written.

Again with verbal abuse, either written or spoken, is it a form of controlling?  If it is then what and how are they trying to control?

I think written words, as well as spoken words, can be abusive and controlling.   How are you feeling?
