Topic	Is physical violence on objects a form of domestic abuse?
GameGodOfAll 07/15/18 1:25:44 PM #6:	Yes it can be. It's traumatic as hell if someone is throwing stuff, punching walls and destroying the place you live. It's obviously not on the same level as beating up your significant other, but you shouldn't have to put up with it. Also depending on the context, if they are doing that as a response to being in an argument or something, that is a massive sign they are unbalanced and dangerous. A lot of people just think of domestic abuse as beating someone up, but it comes in multiple forms. Context is important. Letting out anger is healthy, but are you losing it over a frustrating video game or computer problem? To what degree? Is it caused by a disagreement with your family? Slamming doors is some childish bullshit, bit not necessarily abuse. If you're pounding your fist on a table, are you doing so to shut the other person up with intimidation? An implication is all it takes. Main take away is it's not black and white. Very tricky stuff and goes on a case by case basis. Just keep an open mind and don't write it off because it doesn't fit your conventional portrayal of what is domestic abuse. --- My Words Were True And Sheamus Made You Believe! https://imgur.com/Fc39f <cite>GameGodOfAll posted [p:905119470] in Is physica...
