Parent Abuse Signs and Strategies for Help
Parent abuse is one of those things that no one seems to be talking about. Yet, it’s happening daily in every community across the United States and around the world. Minor children can and do abuse their parents and custodial guardians in a lot of different ways. However, most of the time, this abusive behavior is brushed under the rug or explained away because of the child’s age.
The Kids Aren’t All Right When They’re Abusing Their Parents
Kids abuse their parents at alarming rates, according to research that points to acts of child-to-parent violence in upwards of 65% of the families studied. Yet, most studies indicate that parent abuse is underreported.
