It is not common to verbally abuse your child if you had so fare in past. Humanbeings are social animal hence capable of improvemnt in their term. Had that been the scene,we wold have hardly developed from barbarianism of dark ages.

∙ 18y agoYes it is. After all, what's changed? Abusive people are angry people for reasons only usually known to them. Sometimes parents don't get along, or sometimes they can actually be jealous of the child's youth and can reflect back on their own wishing they had done things differently, or wishing they weren't getting older. It appears it really bothers you and before you turn your back completely on your parent, try sitting down and quietly talk things out. Don't look at your parent as a parent, but as an individual. They are people too, and you just never know what is bothering them. They could be depressed and also, medications can cause mood changes. Be honest with yourself and ask yourself if it's really verbal abuse or just nagging and what could you have done better to help the situation out. Often parents get exasperated with their kids for not doing things they ask of them such as doing homework, getting good grades, watching out who they hang around with or date, or keeping their room clean to helping more around the house. That's nagging (and I don't blame him/her because there is no such thing as a free ride even if you are the child in the house.) If you can't come to some understanding then move away and give it a week or two (keep in contact with your parent once a week just to let them know you are OK because they really do care) and then perhaps try again and take them out for lunch. I call it the "circle of life." Parents often hate to see their kids walk out that door to try their wings of independence. They'll miss and worry about their children. They can also be having marriage problems, personal problems or just be depressed. Once you have been away from home there is a high possibility that you'll mature and they'll miss you so when you both get together you are on a more even keel. Good luck Merry Christmas Marcy

Is it common for a verbally emotionally abusive parent to continue to abuse after the child becomes an adult?
yes it is they dont know how to break the cycle That's very true. At times, they may not even recognize their actions for what they really are. Other times, the parents may continually need that power over the child - they need the assumed importance or replacement for something they feel they lack. More often than not, it is the child who will have to be a strong enough person to cut the ties and realize that they do not deserve this treatment - parent or not, no one has the right to be abusive to someone else.

What are some example of the cause of abusive relationships?
The main predictor of abusive relationships is if someone has themselves been abused or has grown up in a family where abuse was present. It is very contagious, particularly when the abusive family has sons, since they will repeat the homelife they grew up in. Girls tend to find someone to marry who is like the abuser. (of course, there are abusers of both sexes--I don't mean to be exclusive) Common occupations of abusers include being in law enforcement or the military, but they are not exclusive. As a society, we often blame the victim for not leaving the abuser, or for somehow creating a situation where anger can surface and so on. However, most people can express anger and disappointment without being verbally or physically abusive.
