EC04-469 When Words Are Used As Weapons: The Signs of Verbal Abuse (Part 2 of a four part series)
Date of this Version
2004
Abstract
Verbal abuse finally is being recognized as a form of domestic violence and as the behavior that usually precedes physical violence. There has been little support for individuals who are verbally abused because it's not as readily visible as a black eye or bruise. However, many individuals, particularly women, suffer with verbal assaults from their partners.
