To me it's the most worst form of abuse out there. I think i might be getting abused in that way right as i write this. My advice is tell a school councelor, ask her what to do.I would either tell someone close to me from my family or call the hotline. write down all the things you say to your mom and all she says back. then give it to the councelour and she will decide whether it is or is not any form of abuse.

Its possible to be abused by word! i think they call it verbal abuse when someone doesnt hit you but the hurt you with what they say! I dont think the abuse line would work or getting her taken away from you neither! the most they may do is put you guys in theropy or something but i dont think they would do anything to her!

it is not possible to be abused by words that would be harrasment. dont call a line and have your mom taken away she does what she does because she loves you you would feel horrible if you did this trust me it would just be your dad and he would disiplen you and then you would have no one to tell your secret to and to do girl stuff with you like go shopping

unseen_depression answered Tuesday November 8 2005, 9:20 pm:
it is very possible. its called verbal abuse and is very common..especially with teenagers. sometimes parents feel as though they have to control everything their children do and this often results in 'verbal' abuse. they may cuss at you a lot or shout at you, call you names, etc. if its bad enough, you can get something done about it! you can call HRS or you could call social services or an abuse hotline. im not sure if theyd take you away from your mom, but they would prolly come an kinda 'supervise' to see that she didnt do it any more. i hope this helped an that every thing works out ok.

Yes it is possible. It's known as verbal abuse. Here's a site all about it, also with a number to call:

..but you must think about everything before you call that. Do you really want to get your mother taken away from you? ( if they can take her away, i'm not sure ) where would you live? with your dad? If that's an option, don't report her or something, just live with your dad instead. Also some teenagers just don't like their parents, I mean my mother says things to me alot but I'd never think of reporting her. Just be positive that all the things she's saying is actually verbal abuse. It'd be best just to go to that site and maybe just read some sites about verbal abuse and how to get through it =/

there's another site to maybe take a look at. I hope I helped!






Love,

Do you think you can talk to your guidance counciler at school? This is a hard one for me. I hope everything works out for you! xoxo

Well, it depends on what the words are. Verbal abuse -is- a form of abuse.

It depends. If you feel threatned at all by the words, then yes call a hotline.

sillyrob answered Saturday October 15 2005, 8:04 pm:
It depends on what abusive words your mom is saying to you. If she is saying things like:

"YOU'RE A FAILURE AND A FUCK UP AND I HATE YOU AND I WISH I NEVER HAD YOU AS A DAUGHTER!!!"

...then yes you should find a hotline and tell someone. However, a lot of children nowadays think the simplest things are mental abuse though. If she's constantly grinding you to do work around the house, homework, not be out late, ect., then no that is not abuse. So before you do anything, make sure shes doing the example, and not just being a parent.

I'm sorry, but that is not abuse. It may not be the nicest thing in the world, and I'd probably consider your mom a little weird, but there is no hotline that can help you. I guess you'll just have to do as she says.

You're very welcome, I wasn't aware I made an impact on anything. I hope everything is going well in your life!

poa answered Saturday October 15 2005, 7:08 pm:
You should probably confront her about it as opposed to calling it in.

That way maybe she'll hit you and she will be taken away.

Yes, it's called verbal abuse and yes you could call a hotline, but I think it would be better to talk to your school guidance counselor.

GDROB2 answered Saturday October 15 2005, 6:01 pm:
Unless your mother is whacking the shit out of you all the time or endangering your life there is no way either of you will be seperated. She has a right to discipline you, spank you, etc. for discipline methods. Verbal abuse exists and I have no idea what she is or is not saying to you though.

To professionals it may not sound like verbal abuse. Have you ever said to her "I know you are angry but why are you saying those kind of things to me.? Odds are she is not THINKING before she says them.

If you feel this is serious which it could indeed be tell a teacher or a trusted adult. There is not a thing we can do to keep physical or verbal abuse from happening over here. You need a teacher, counselor, fellow adult to fix the situation for you and with you. Do not be scared to ask for help.

yea it is. its called verbal abuse. There are a lot of abuse lines. I doubt your mom will be taken away from you, but there are certain measures of abuse, so I'm not sure. Here's a great website with a lot of links on what to do about verbal abuse.
