"How Do I Know If I Was Abused?" 15 Indicators of Abusive Parents | Psychotherapy Crash Course

Child abuse is a tricky topic. It's also a controversial one depending on what era you adopt your theories from. It has been my experience that older generations minimize child abuse by making statements such as "my dad beat me so hard my bottom was red but I still lived." Or they will say things such as "he needs his butt spanked and maybe he will act better." Although corporal punishment may have its place in some situations, it's always better to talk to kids and try to build a loving parental relationship or guardianship with the child.
Younger generations may overdo things and rely way too much on spanking and hitting or calling names and making hurtful statements. It's all detrimental. And there tends to rarely ever be a healthy middle ground.
In this video, I discuss indicators of child abuse and what you may have experiences as a child. I also make it clear that I am not referencing parents who adopt many disciplinary techniques and who have their child's best interest at heart. We're talking about careless, cruel, and insensitive parents.
