As I searched the Internet more using Google.com I found medline plus which connected me to a lotmore information about hostile home environments. This site said that child abuse isn't just physical it is also emotional. Children need love and support. Emotional abuse is the most damaging abuse known. Ridiculing and name calling can do some harm to a child in the long run. It can effect a child's self-esteem and self-image and the ability to function well in society(medline plus). These children feel as though they dont matter so, they have a problem making friends and relating to their peers including taking their selves out of activities with other children. Other things also take place such as bed wetting. But one thing that I kind of learned from medline plus is that the reason why many children are mistreated is because their parents where mistreated as youngsters. And if parents knew that they were doing this they would probably want to stop it because they didn't enjoy it growing up but on the other hand some parents know that they are doing it but don't care because they were treated that way. Medline said that visiting a physican or clegryman would start to help the problem which relates to my BIG question

I understand what you are talking about. I feel the same way. No parents should disrespect their children if they do wrong. They should teach them right from wrong by showing them what to do not beating them for it.
