Finally, somebody got it. What makes people think that abusive men will not abuse their children. Kids who have seen abuse figure out quickly who is in charge and who not to "tick off". My children have to see my ex abusive husband and very rarely tell him how they really feel for fear of retaliation, intimidation and the like.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10822203.post-1110394630166188462005-03-09T10:57:00.000-08:002005-03-09T10:57:00.000-08:00Oh, by "lingering doubt" I meant in general, when ...Oh, by "lingering doubt" I meant in general, when talking about abusive men, that is the thought nagging on the back of my mind.

However, I don't know how anyone can honestly look at abusive behavior and not realize that abusers are overwhelmingly male.Raznorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07779679742198235290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10822203.post-1110177725571152002005-03-06T22:42:00.000-08:002005-03-06T22:42:00.000-08:00I was so pleased to find that link, and pleasantly...I was so pleased to find that link, and pleasantly surprised to find that this stuff was written by a man.

Though it is infuriating that the link between wife-battering and child abuse by abusive men should have to be argued for and empirically demonstrated at all. It should be self-evident on the basis that wife-battering is almost <I>never</I> individualized to a specific female partner but rather is pattern of behavior repeated with <I>all</I> female partners Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
