Understood, but not bloody likely. We've only been doing this for centuries upon centuries. You'd think everyone for those ages had been abused.
I'm sorry, I still would rather understand that you are UPSET about what I did rather than you just want to hit me. I still think it verges on "mental" anyone who really "isn't angry" when they hit someone.

Very likely. The parent that is angry and out of control is VERY likely to abuse the kid. The kid should know that he is being punished for what he did, not because the parent is angry.
