Anger & the Family

Bullying is a sign of insecurity.

Children who were abused during childhood almost always grow up to be happy, normal adults.

Adult abusers most likely grew up in an abusive environment.

It is not good to be the “abuser in a relationship. It is better to be the “recipient” because you’re not hurting anyone but yourself.

Absenteeism is a sign of acting out.

Anger in the family is caused by various factors and not only by differences in personality.

Spousal abuse and anger pertains only to women as victims.

Anger begins with the parents and is passed on to children.

Anger affects a child physically, emotionally and psychologically.

Angry families may engage in physical and verbal abuse.
