99.9% of spouse abuse is caused by alcohol abuse.
Any form of spouse abuse is major, abuse is abuse and no one has any rite to abuse any one or anything.
It could be considered abuse, if your spouse knows that his or her actions are causing you to be afraid or unhappy and they continue to act that way just to harm you.
Depends if there is abuse in forms of verbal abuse, things such as yelling, threatening can be classified as abuse. If not than yes it is
Depends on the situation. Is there any adultry, abuse or have you moved out of the home or your spouse?
Yes.
it is entirely possible. just because nobody has seen it doesn't mean the abuse has not occurred. Doubting someone who complains of abuse is extremely dangerous. Any knowledge of abuse should be reported to the authorities
yes, because any crime is a violation of probation, so abuse is considered asault which is a crime.
Spousal abuse is abuse regardless of whether or not it is discussed.
No, you cannot sue their spouse. You may be able to sue the estate, particularly if the estate was enriched by the crime. Cases of embezzlement come to mind as a possibility.
With the truth, calmly.
Wow, I have never heard of this abuse before, but I will try to answer the question. You do not tell a difference because there is none. Why even put an "abuse" label on it? A person who is greedy and selfish is going to spend the money on themselves regardless of their spouse's needs, causing the spouse to go without. I suppose it would then be sensible to label it "monetary abuse," but I would just leave it as being married to a greedy and selfish person.
