I am the author...and, no, I'm not saying at all that women are the only victims of emotional abuse. It most certainly does affect the children. There is no possible way to address every aspect of emotional abuse on every member of the family.

Some of these emotional abuse problems are already addressed in other articles on this site.

Since the majority of the audience of this website is women who have been abused or are being abused, the article was written from that perspective.

I'm actually rather surprised at the vehemence of some of these comments. There's no harm in asking a question, but the tone that comes across is very angry and kind of misses the point of the article.

Nevertheless, I will write a follow-up article investigating women who abuse. Statistics support that the majority of abuse happens to women by men in their lives, but there are definitely women who have emotional/control issues themselves that they need to address because they are abusing their husband's and families...and may not realize it.
