aww, icey, i'm thinking abuse is abuse....whether verbal, emotional or physical....IN the Life, or out...we're all bonded here, now...and i think for so many of us to be able to meet together this way is amazing....so gawd yes woman....join us!

Definitely, butterfly! Any kind of abuse is abuse. It doesn't matter the form. I remember once I had Oprah on when I cooking dinner and this woman was on there talking about the abuse she had suffered from her husband. Then Oprah put her foot in her mouth when she made the comment that the woman had suffered "only" verbal abuse. I am assuming that Oprah doesn't think abuse is bad unless it is physical. The audience and other panel members really came down Oprah (as well they should have) for saying something like that. In fact, throughout the show, they kept making little jibes about it being "only verbal abuse."

It doesn't matter if the other person is throwing insults at you or throwing you against the wall. It is abuse, plain and simple.
