Abusive Relationships

Though there are no relationships in the world that are perfect, you might consider many of them fabulously flawed. I would think a perfect relationship might be something of a bore. If you don’t argue on occasion, or have a different point of view, things might stagnate. The last thing you want is for the passion to fizzle away. There is a fine line between a healthy argument and falling into the trap of abusive relationships. Most of these relationships start out ok, but in the end one of the parties is injured and the affects can be long lasting.

Abusive relationships aren’t always about physical abuse, and they don’t always happen between love partners. Sometimes this happens between parent and child, or stepparent and child. When you blend families, you have a higher chance of abusive relationships forming within your own home, and many times the other parent may not even know what is going on. Children aren’t sure what is even going on, and they may not know that it is not the way things are supposed to be. They won’t say anything, and that is because they are too scared to do so.
